 How can you hide specfic words from a field, without hiding the whole field
Lotus, Lotus Domino, Lotus Notes, LotusScript
How would I hide specific words only, in a view or field, but show the rest of the words. For example, always hide "[SEC:UNCLASSIFIED]" in a subject field. So the value would be "Funny Picture [SEC:UNCLASSIFIED]" but it would appear as just "Funny Pictures"

You could use a computed-for-display field. Hide the subject field. Make the formula for the cfd field something like @ReplaceSubstring( subject; "[SEC:UNCLASSIFIED"; "" )

I did not recommend this solution because you said “in a view “. The computed for display field will not be available in a view. In a view, you would use the same formula used in the comupted for display field to strip out unwanted characters.
