Attached is the VI in 8.2, but an easier solution is to use the Search and Replace String function.

tnx for the quick reply !

Is there also a possibility to view webpages in Labview ? 

I mean you just insert an URL (like "www.google.be") en Labview shows the page in the front panel?

You can take a look at the "ActiveX Event Callback for IE" example that ships with LabVIEW. Open the Example Finder (Help -> Find Examples) and search for "ActiveX".
