Hmmm... my experience is the exact opposite, Javier.  If I'm doing something 
"official" online and I put my street as Beckwith Ln (which is what I usually 
do), I get the automatic response of "do you want to replace it with official 
address Beckwith Lane"

“Ln” to “Lane”?In my applications I have done the opposite since it makes it 
compatible with most every other application out there that use the address for 
GIS location; we don’t even allow a dot (“.”) after the description. The caveat 
is that my applications are used by Public Works agencies that deal with 
numerous variations of the same name and need to interface with GIS systems and 
the address is typically stored as separate components and a computed column 
merges them all together.  Javier,  Javier Valencia, PE913-915-3137  From:

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Doing a replace in a data field in RBASE  Good evening 
everyone:  I am new to RBASE and was looking at the string manipulation 
functions and couldn't find one that would work for me.  I would like to change 
a database field similar to using the find and replace function in Excel.In my 
street name field I have ("Black Gold Ln", "Mirage Ln", etc.). I would like to 
mass blast this field by changing all of my "Ln"s to "Lane".  Would someone 
know how I could accomplish that?  Thanks,Larry Haas--
