placing the "+" sing between words in a google search

Hello

I have to do a google search from Companies in my filemaker databases to see if they have a web site.

In the formating of that search I need to generate a url within filemaker as a script step with all the words in the field with the

"+" symbol between them .

example "Dinosaur Bar-B-Q Catering" has to be in the url google search as "Dinosaur+Bar-B-Q+Catering" - I can understand how to do this when there are always the same amount of words in the business name but there might only be 1 and up to 6 words in a business. So in the case of one word

example "Sugarland" there would be no "+"

but many businesses are more than 2 words. It is always different. I am not understanding how to do this,.

Thanks if you can help.

Dave

Substitute("Dinosaur Bar-B-Q Catering"; " " ; "+");

e.g: Substitute(YourFieldHere; " " ; "+");
