changing list of words Oct 28th, 2009, 9:33am   Hi, i have a aray with words. Here's a small part for example: Quote: azadirachta azadrachta azafran azafrin azalea azalea's azaleamum azaleas azan azans azarole azaserine azathioprine azazel azedarac azedarach if i have the word azans for example then i need it written as: a' z' a' n' s' how can i do that since i don't see any functions to acces a certain character?

This works '"' but that's not the thing i search for, i'm searching the single '. Must i convert to bytes and check the byte?
