Hey Erik,

I created a table #temp with one field. I inserted four rows in it. Then tried the replace statement as you did.

CREATE TABLE #temp ( word VARCHAR(100))

SELECT * FROM #temp
--saat
--bat
--hoot
--boot

SELECT REPLACE(word,'oo','**') FROM #temp
--saat
--bat
--h**t
--b**t

You must use the column name ( word in my table) in 1st expression, then the pattern (in singlequotes) in 2nd expression and the replace string pattern(in single quotes) in 3rd expression.

Hope this helps !!!

Regards,
Suresh

Hi,

I was able to execute the following in Management studio successfully but was unable to replicate the results when using BIDS.

Update dbo.mydatabase
Set stage = REPLACE(Stage,'Closed Won','Awarded')

I tried the table solution but was not able to achieve the desired results.

I may be missing something here, but why not just

update mydatabase
set stage = 'Awarded' where stage = 'Closed Won'
