Replace A with B and Substitute B for A are very important idioms. Any dictionary will tell you the difference. Good luck. – Jun 30 '16 at 14:59

I assume you are referring to editing a document. Every occurrence of the word "John" would be replaced with "Andrew", so "John" would be trashed. – Kate Bunting Jun 30 '16 at 15:00

John is trashed.
to take the place of something, or to put something or someone in the place of something or someone else:
The factory replaced most of its workers with robots.
