Assuming I understand the problem... try including word delimiters in
both the replaced and the replacing text:
get the clickText
put underscores(length(it)) into tChars -- func makes "__" string
put space & it & space into tBad
put space & tChars & space into tGood
replace tBad with tGood in fld 1
function underscores pCount
repeat (pCount)
put "_" after tString
end repeat
return tString
end underscores
