Mike,
The following works for me in 9.1, running from R> prompt:
R>SET VAR x TEXT = '(Comment 1) (Comment 2)'
R>show var x
(Comment 1) (Comment 2)
R>SET VAR x = (SRPL(.x,') (',', ',0))
R>show var x
(Comment 1, Comment 2)
Is this what you need?

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Help with SRPL syntax
Hello all,
I would like to use the SRPL function to replace each instance of
) ( {a right parenthesis, followed by a space followed by a left
parenthesis}
with a comma followed by a space
As an example, I would like to change this....
(Comment 1) (Comment 2) to this
(Comment 1, Comment 2)
I tried (SRPL(.vtext, ') (', ', ',0))
but that did not work.
How do I do it?
Mike
