Study401.zip
I have thousands of beginnings that need changing so I am trying
put replaceText (field "Gates", * & "_parm", "Study4") into field
"StudyGroup"
The * & is what I need help with... what is a method for doing a wildcard
I think you have a point and will store it as a binary in a custom
property.

It seems like this type of mistake keeps coming up. I've hit it myself more than
once. Your problem is that replaceText is a function, not a command. You have to use
it in an expression. For example,
