Hi!

no, its still not changing the letters (but thanks Rob)..

I have a string:
$givenword="YY-"

and another string (the original)
$word="not"

now I want $givenword to look like this:
$givenword="no-"

?

thanks in advanced!
Erik

Hello Erik

It's not clear exactly what you want, but something like this should do the
job:

for (my $i = 0; $i < length $word; ++$i)
{
substr ($word, $i, 1) = '-' unless substr ($givenword, $i, 1) eq
'X';
}

HTH,

Rob
