Hi,

try this UDF:


String retString;
retString = a.replaceAll("ä", "ae");
retString = retString.replaceAll("ü", "ue");
retString = retString.replaceAll("ö", "oe");
return(retString);

this will replace any occurrence all "ä" , "ü" , "ö" in your text in "ae" , "ue" , "oe"

Regards,

Or shorter:

String replace;

replace = a.replaceAll("ö", "oe").replaceAll("ä", "ae").replaceAll("ü", "ue");

return replace;

Hi,

you need three diferent udf for this.

/*******UDF*******/

1.

if(a.equalsIgnoreCase("ä")){

a = "ae";

}

return(a);

2.

if(b.equalsIgnoreCase("ü"){

b="ue";

}

return(b);

3.

if(c.equalsIgnoreCase("ö"){

c="oe";

}

return(c);

Cheers!

Hi,

>>>>you need three diferent udf for this.

/*******UDF*******/

1.

if(a.equalsIgnoreCase("ä")){

a = "ae";

}

return(a);

1. not true - you can put everything in one

2. it's better to use standard function (fixed values) to do that

that's what standard fucntions are for

This doesn't work when i have a Text for example:

"die häuser sind schön"

the result must be:

"die haeuser sind schoen"
