Try using regular expressions like: regex.Replace( yourString, "-", "_") where regex is the regular expression and yourString is the string in question. Hope this sheds some light :)

Dim s As String = "000-000-000-000" Dim i As Int16 = InStrRev(s, "-") Mid(s, i, 1) = "_" MsgBox(s)

Will the string always be the same length, as in 4 sets of characters seperated by 3 dashes?

Is this VB.NET ? If so, then you should use the string. methods, not the ones provided.  But, any sort of replace method will replace them all.  as someone suggested, if the format is always the same, you can use an index to replace the one character that's in the same place evry time.
