**This template (and its associated code templates) has been deprecated, and is now replaced by the [[tplcontrolrtf.htm|RTF Text Control]] template.**

The ReplaceRTF code template is used to do a Find and Replace search option within the rich text control. This template calls the Replace method. The string (or variable containing a string) to search for and the string (or variable containing a string) to replace with is passed to this method. If these parameters are omitted the Find and Replace dialog will appear.

** Prototype:**

**Replace( [**//FindText//**], [**//ReplaceText//**] )**

**Example method calls:**

**! Using Variables**

**loc:position = oRTF_RTFTextBox.Replace( loc:find, loc:replace )**

**! Replace dialog**

**loc:position = oRTF_RTFTextBox.Replace()**

**Template Prompts:**
