Hi,

Loop at ITAB.
REPLACE '''' with 'Inches' into itab-f1.
REPLACE '&' with 'and' into itab-f1.
modify ITAB.
Endloop.

If you are on a 46c release, you can to this.



report zrich_0001 .

data: begin of itab occurs 0,
      str type string,
      end of itab.


itab-str =  '130 " front & 12 " back'.
append itab.


loop at itab.
  while sy-subrc = 0.
    replace '"' with 'inches' into itab-str.
    replace '&' with 'and' into itab-str.
  endwhile.
  modify itab.
endloop.



loop at itab.
  write:/ itab-str.
endloop.

With newer releases, the REPLACE statement allows you to do ALL OCCURANCES, which means that you don't need the WHILE to loop it.
