how to delete ponctuation in a textfield

[Lynch, Jonathan]

You are going to get a million different approaches to how to do this...

Do you wish to exclude certain particular bits of punctuation, or do you
wish to include only characters that are letters and numbers?

Here is a function for the inclusion approach:


Function NumCharOnly pText
  Repeat for each char tChar in pText
    If tChar is in "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890" then
      Put tChar after tReturnText
    End if
  End repeat
  Return tReturnText
End NumCharOnly



Here is a function for the exclusion approach:


Function ExcludePunct pText
  Repeat for each char tChar in pText
    If tChar is not in "~!@#$%^&*()><.,`?/{}[]|\=-_" and tChar <> quote
then
      Put tChar after tReturnText
    End if
  End repeat
  Return tReturnText
End ExcludePunct
