Shao,
In the example you give, I would bet the repeat with is faster, since it
only has to do 128 replace statements, whereas the repeat for each would
have to adjust each character one at a time. It probably depends on the size
of what's being converted - if it's small, repeat for each, if it's

it's my actual code, i used to use the repeat for but switched that chunk
to the repeat with as it seemed to be easier to just replace all of the
instances at once...

Good catch. I revised it as shown below and still get similar

You have nonetheless to give the key code if the key name is not
