print remchar$("thze emerjgenczy broawdcast sysztem", "zjw") returns an error in LBB but works in LB.

Damned inconvenient !

LBB.chm: Search LB45func - No topic found

LBB.chm: Search remchr$ - No topic found

So where do I find how to use the function ? (Although it seems to be implied that LBB3.1 does not need to use the function.

You need to have this as the last statement in your code:
Code:
'include lb45func.bas

DO include the ' as the first character
DO NOT indent

LBB 3.10:
help | search | LB45func
finds page "Liberty BASIC 4.5.0"
with text Quote:
The new LB 4.5.0 functions are made available through the supplied library file lb45func.bas.


so search finds it - for me.

That's because the function is called remchar$ not remchr$! If you search for the correct keyword it finds it perfectly OK:

Right. My fault as regards the search.

I found the lib file after upgrading to the latest LBB, but couldn't get it to work with a simple include, so I cut and pasted the function from the library into the programme. (After having done the same thing with a for/next loop and if instr() then next).

Thanks to all who responded.
