## Description Replaces all occurrences of a `string` with another `string`. ## Usage *result*=**ReplaceAllB**(*sourceString*, *oldString*, *newString*) **OR** *result*=*stringVariable*.**ReplaceAllB**(*oldString*, *newString*) | Part | Type | Description | |----------------|----------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | result | `String` | A copy of *sourceString* with any changes made by the **ReplaceAllB** function. | | sourceString | `String` | The original string. | | oldString | `String` | The characters to be replaced. | | newString | `String` | The replacement characters. | | stringVariable | `String` | A `String` variable containing the source string. | ## Notes The ReplaceAllB function replaces all occurrences of *oldString* in *sourceString* with *newString*. ReplaceAllB is case-sensitive because it treats the source string as a series of raw bytes. If *newString* is an empty string (""), the ReplaceAllB function deletes every occurrence of the *oldString* in the *sourceString*. If *oldString* is an empty string (""), the ReplaceAllB function returns an unchanged copy of the *sourceString*. ReplaceAllB is case-sensitive; it treats *sourceString* as a series of raw bytes. It should be used instead of ReplaceAll when the string represents a series of bytes or when your application will run in a one-byte character set (such as the US system) and you want case-sensitivity. ## Sample code Below are some examples that show the results of the ReplaceAll function ``` xojo Dim result As String result = ReplaceAllB("xyxyxy", "x", "z") ' returns "zyzyzy" result = ReplaceAllB("The quick fox", " ", "") ' returns "Thequickfox" result = "The Quick Fox" result = result.ReplaceAllB(" ", ", ") ' returns "The, Quick, Fox" ``` ## Compatibility All project types on all supported operating systems. ## See also `String.Replace`, `String.ReplaceBytes`, `String.ReplaceLineEndings` functions.
