space and "/"

[SASPhile]

I'm trying to replace space and "/"  with an underscore. but the following replaces only "/" with an undrscore not a space. Any help to include space in regex?

proc sql ;
   select catx('=',_name_,prxchange('s/[,\/\\]/_/', -1, col1))
     into :rename separated by ' '
         from temp;
         
quit;

Like this?

data t;
  COL2=prxchange('s/(\/| )/_/', -1, '1/2 3');
  put COL2=;
run;

COL2=1_2_3

Or this is you want to use a character class.

COL2=prxchange('s/[\/ ]/_/', -1, '1/2 3');
