Ken, Both of these items are correct. But still doesn't exit the repeat. Here's what I have:
function replaceGender whatText local tStart,tEnd put "he,him,himself,his,he's,boy,guy" into SearchWordsMale put "she,her,herself,her,she's,girl,gal" into SearchWordsFemale set the wholeMatches to true repeat forever get matchChunk(whatText,"[^A-Za-z0-9](boy|h(e|im|is|imself|e's)|guy)[^A-Za-z0-9] ",tStart,tEnd) if it is true then put char tStart to tEnd of tText into tFoundChunk put (charToNum(toUpper(char 1 of tFoundChunk)) = charToNum(char 1 of tFoundChunk)) into isUpper put itemOffset(tFoundChunk,SearchWordsMale) into tItem if tItem <> 0 then put item tItem of SearchWordsFemale into temp if isUpper then put toUpper(char 1 of temp) into char 1 of temp put temp into char tStart to tEnd of whatText else -- you decide... bail? error out? ignore? end if else exit repeat end if end repeat return whatText end replaceGender > Dan, > > Two things to check: > > 1) Check the script to make sure the "local tStart,tEnd" is in there; if it > isn't, Rev won't actually put anything in tStart or tEnd since they weren't > "localed". > > 2) Check to make sure in the matchchunk it says: > > (boy|h(e|im|is|imself|e's)|guy) > > between the two [^A-Za-z0-9] and not: > > boy|h(e|im|is|imself|e's)|guy > > ... without the parentheses around it, there will be nothing to return as a > match. > > Let me know if it still doesn't work... > > Don't worry about not getting matchChunk and matchText...
