I know it is Monday but in theory it is a holiday here …

I need to edit some character fields - simply edits similar to what would be needed for a date.

My brain tells me there are functions to do this but edit words and codes only apply to numerics and even among the MI functions they are all numeric.

Am I mismembering? or do I really have to do it the hard way? Seems such a trivial requirement which is why I’m convinced I’m missing something.
