string.replace limited to only one character.

[Steve Nix]

Is there a way to use string.replace or another method to remove the occurrence of more than one character. In other words, how could I remove the word "cat" from the following string:
myString = "That dog ate the neighbors cat!"

The StringBuffer class has methods that will let you do what you want. Check out the delete() method.
