hi shinji

if you can assume there's a blank in front of every term in varcopy, then
use

   ReplaceNoCase(varcopy,' #term#',
       ' <a href="http://term.cfm/#term_id#.cfm"
              title="#definition#">#term#</a>',"ALL")

note the blank in front of the first #term# and in front of the <a

this won't catch the first word in a paragraph or the first word on a new
line, so you may need an additional step
