Replacing a comma in a list

[Manny Zachodin]

I have a name of a provider that has a comma in it ” HEALTH HERO NETWORK, INC”.  Is there a substitute function in TCL to handle this specific case? I tried to use REGSUB with no success. I would like to use the function in xlate.  Thank you very much for your help.

You can use the “map” subfunction of the “string” command.

Code:

set newString [string map {, {}} $oldString]

The bit between the braces is a list of pairs, in this case converting a comma to a null. You are not limited to a single pair.
