A problem to replace a string with forward slashes….

[Plato2]

I have a string with forward slashes.("/cgi-bin/detail.dtw/disp")

Dim result as string
result=".........../cgi-bin/detail.dtw/disp............"

I want to replace this string everywhere where it finds
"name2/name3" with something else. But it never replaces it.

I do: Replace(result, "/cgi-bin/detail.dtw/disp", "ProductDetails.aspx")

But it never replaces this string.

How can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance

Replace is a function. It returns the changed string. It does not change the input string.
result = Replace(result, "/cgi-bin/detail.dtw/disp", "ProductDetails.aspx")
