Finding and replacing "numbers" in calendar day field

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Hi Mark,

Guess all the pros have closed shop for the day. (smile)

I don't have the tutorial you're using in front of me, but...

If you can define the "chunk" that you're replacing, why not just  
"put" the new stuff into it, or "put" &"Event" after it.
