Question: applyrule,subs,algsubs

Hi Everyone,

I have an expression that contains a second order derivative: EXPR:=ay''(x) + bz'(x) + cf'(x)+... The variable y  obeys an ordinary differential equation, y''(x) = f(y,x). I would like to replace the second order deriavtive in my expression with f(y,x). So far I have tried applyrule([y''(x)=f(y,x)],EXPR), subs(y''(x)=f(y,x),EXPR) and algsubs(y''(x)=f(y,x),EXPR) and nothing seems to work. Any helpful suggestions?
