ABSTRACT:
A test processing system having a search-and-replace function. The text data stored in a memory includes character data representative of characters and attribute data which designates the manner in which the characters are printed. The attribute data is stored in the memory in relation to the character data, in response to operations of appropriate attribute-data entry keys. A desired group of successive characters of the text data is searched in the memory, and replaced by a designated group of replacement characters. The system includes a data-replacing control device which is operable during a search-and-replace operation if the character data representative of a leading character of the searched group of characters is accompanied with attribute data. In this case, when the searched group of characters is replaced by the group of replacement characters, the attribute data for the leading character is stored in the memory, in relation to each set of character data representative of each of the replacement characters, such that all of the replacement characters are printed in a manner designated by the attribute data.
