Subject: Yet another quiz question


I am running several extracts and outputting the data into a " delimited
file. The plan is to upload this data into a Progress database and a double
quote is the only delimiter I can use. The problem is that some of our
character fields have a double quote within the data (which shouldn't be
there) and I need to parse through each text field, see if it contains any
double quotes, and replace each with a space. 
 
Is that even possible in Quiz? I know how to do it in SQL or Progress, but
don't even know where to begin in Quiz.
 
Thanks,
-Kristina
