Replace/Substitute all values in a Collection Column

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 204

Hi Guys,

 

I want to find and replace a string in all rows in a particular column.

 

For example replace the string "be" with "" for all values in column "Task".

Tried the below code although doesn't work.

 

UpdateIf(Col,
"be" in Task,
{Task: Substitute( "Task", "be", "" ))}
)

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

    Hi @christian12 

     

    Please modify your formula to:

    UpdateIf(Col,
    "be" in Task,
    {Task: Substitute(Task, "be", "" )}
    )

     

    Best Regards,

    Levi
