I have a custom field called Account_from__c which is a text field. Now, I have a Long text field called Warning_Message__c which contains warning messages. The warning message will be like "Account from value cannot be null". This warning message field will contains multiple messages.
Now, if Account_from__c is not null, this particular warning message should be removed.
below is the code snipper:
String s = 'The Account From cannot be blank.';
if(acc.Account_from__c != Null){
if(acc.Warning_Message__c.contains(s)){
acc.Warning_Message__c.replace(s,'');
}
}
This logic isnt working as expected. Even when I update the record with Account from value, the message is still in place.
Can anyone please suggest any update to the above code so that i can get this done.
Thanks!

You forgot to actually update the warning message. Replace does not change the current string but generates a new one.
