Replacements in dependent tiers

[remeig...@gmail.com]

Dear all, 

We are trying to find a way *to replace several codes* we used in a 
dependent tier in many files, in order to create new files with these new 
codes. 

As far as I know, the CHSTRING command with a *.cut *file containing a list 
of all the replacements can be used for this purpose, but I’m afraid of 
going wrong and replacing strings that we are not supposed to, specially in 
the case of complex codes containing characters like : or – (although I 
believe they’re not considered metacharacters in this case). 

I would go with something like: 

CHSTRING %dep “$code-Iwant-to-change” “resulting-code”.

Is there any other way to do it or is there any unique option I should use 
in the case of using CHSTRING in dependent tiers? 

Furthermore, I noticed the next: when using CHSTRING command it gives me 
back as an output a .chstr.cex file format. Is there any way to avoid this? 

Thank you in advance,
