[ ...] -> character class; match any characters in between the brackets [^...] -> character class; do *NOT* match all characters in between the brackets So, you can try something like: put replacetext( mytext, "[^a-zA-Z0-9]", empty) into mytext a-z -> any chars from a to z A-Z -> any chars from A to Z Still missing the dash; add it inside the brackets: put replacetext( mytext, "[^a-zA-Z0-9-]", empty) into mytext and carry on adding extra chars until you are happy. Does that makes sense?
