How to clear out a field completely

[rutledj]

If I have the following

NK1|1|Jane^Doe|||555-555-5555||SON

and I want to replace the ^ between the name with a space, how do I do that so in the end I'd have this:

NK1|1|Jane Doe|||555-555-5555||SON

Thanks

Something like this should work

msg['NK1']['NK1.2']['NK1.2.1'] = msg['NK1']['NK1.2']['NK1.2.1'].toString() + msg['NK1']['NK1.2']['NK1.2.2'].toString();
msg['NK1']['NK1.2']['NK1.2.2'] = '';

So, basically, you'll want to assign the first sub-segment to the concatenation of the first sub-segment and the second sub-segment, and then blank out the second sub-segment.
