Hi Warren,
The selectedChunk is a reference to particular characters in a field.
Also, the selectedChunk of fld x isn't a reference the actual text in
that field but rather a string containing that reference.
For example, if you tell Revolution to replace "xyz" with "abc" in
"char 1 to 2 of field 1" it isn't going to work.
You might try this.
put the selectedText into mySelection
replace mySelection with "<b>" & mySelection & "</b>" in field x
or
put the selectedText into mySelection
put "<b>" & mySelection & "</b>" into the selectedChunk
I have tested this and both methods work.

I am trying to replace a selected chunk of text with the selectedchunk
of text and some html codes. I tried the code below and the software
doesn't like this.
replace the selectedtext of field "field" with "<b>" & the
selectedtext of field "field" & "</b>" in the selectedchunk of field
"field"
I could use:
replace the selectedtext of field "field" with "<b>" & the
selectedtext of field "field" & "</b>" in field "field"
...but the replace would replace all occurrences of the text in my
field...instead of just the selectedchunk.
How would I accomplish this? I assume it is something simple.
Warren
