  Hi,

  I have some views.

  When I select this views I want to replace the character "|" by "" and any character that is inserted into the database that does not belong to the collation.

  To replace "|" on the result set off the view I can do like:

  Select replace(fileds1,"|",""),field2......

  But how can I replace the invalid charaters (characters that don't belong to the collation)

  on the result set of the view?

  Thanks,

  Pedro
