General Information

The FILTERW function returns a data string equivalent to the original string minus the occurrences of a substring, that is usually a word.

This function differs from function FILTER (described above) in that the second argument (the substring to be removed) is treated as a unit. Characters in the second argument are only removed from the first argument (the original string) when they occur in sequential order. Characters in the second argument are not removed from the original string individually.
