I've searched the net to see if I can find a solution to this and the best I can come up with is = Replace([Name],">"," ")

I can easily do this in Excel, but I was hoping to do the source, BO.

VBA Code:
.Range("B:B").Replace ">", " ", xlPart, , False, , False, False

In Business Objects the field look like the below. Every word has a ">" sign before it and for every ">", simply replace it with a space equal to the number of ">" signs.

>Washington
>>Franklin
>>>Jefferson

Anybody have a thought or experience with BO?
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
Fixed: In BO, comma's need to be semi-colons.
