Post the syntax you used for the function, Also post the output you are getting!

convert("reddy","abc",field002) i got this output like
output
field001,field002
101,abcc sa abcc
102,aaj abcc is abcc

i am getting this output

Thanks

The convert function will not replace the entire string as you mentioned. It works in the following way. It replaces

"r" with "a"
"e" with "b"
"d" with "c" in your case.

To replace the entire string you can leverage the ereplace() or change() functions. Search it!

The answer for a server job is to use the Ereplace() function.

use pxEreplace for parallel jobs posted a while ago by DSGuru2B!
