      I have a string wrapped with parentheses. I need to remove those parens.
      This code:

      posttext="(TM 9-5895-1600-10)"/>
      

      Should be replaced with this code:

      posttext="TM 9-5895-1600-10"/>
      

      The parentheses being a special character is confusing my search.
      That’s it.
      Thanks.

        Escape special characters (“confusing my search”) with a backslash, like I showed with the parentheses in the replacement in your previous question.
