[SOLVED] How to strip single quotes in multi-select prompt values

I have an amper variable that can have multiple values selected in the prompt. I see that the value passed from the prompt is like: 'England' OR 'France' OR 'Italy'

My goal is to translate that value into an string I can use as part of the report title, something like: England, France, and Italy.

I tried using CTRAN and STRREP to remove the single quotes and the "OR", but they don't work properly because they appear to assume there is a single pair of single quotes in the input string. So they return only the first value.

Does anyone know how this can be achieved?

Never mind, I later found the following technique. I was not using the CTRAN function correctly.
