Subject: Need to replace word in sentence with *

VFPSP1

Need to take incoming string and replace any word occurrence with 
asterisk.  Word we want to censor is "SES"

So if I pass "SES Reading" in, I want to get back * Reading.

Was thinking of some function using GETWORDCOUNT to set/dim an array, 
then storing each word into array using GETWORDNUM and then cycling 
through array checking for censor word and replacing with asterisk and 
then rebuilding string to return from function.

Can anyone think of a better way?

tia!
