Have you looked for 'character functions' in the Technical Documentation Library above.
Check out POSIT and SUBSTR. You may have to do the find and replace in a couple of steps.
Also, consider replacing with &| instead of just &. When WF parses &..., it will try to populate the variable when all you wanted was the literal &; using &| (the concatentation symbol) will get you by that.
