I want to use regex_replace() to replace characters in multiple records.

What I would like to do is this:

select regex_replace((select fname from table), 'z', 'Z'));


The problem is, the subquery returns more then one row.

So, is there a way to do what I'm trying to do? That is, replace the same character in multiple records using regex_replace() ?

In reality, we are trying to change characters like the 1/2 character to the three characters '1/2'.

Thanks for any assistance.
