I have done something similar, but I was willing to have punctuation too. My
intent was to just get rid of unprintable/escape characters. If you do an:
XXX=OCONV(XXX, "MCP")
it will convert all nonprinting characters to tildas ("~"). You could convert
all PRINTABLE but unwanted characters to null:
CONVERT "~...@#$%^&*()_+" TO "" IN XXX
(or something like that).

Subject: [U2] EREPLACE Function
Is there a way to negate the selection criteria in the EREPLACE function?
For example, I want to replace every character that is not A-Z, a-z, 0-9 with a
blank.
Perhaps there is a better function for this?
Thanks,
