Jim,

A DECLARE CURSOR may be needed to update those specific records.

-- Start of Code
-- Update Part Information Contents

CLEAR ALL VAR
SET VAR vPARTNAMEPC TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vSrchReplDesc TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vSearchString TEXT = '2x10 8'
SET VAR vReplaceString TEXT = '2x10x96'

SET VAR vCheckCursor INTEGER = (CHKCUR('c1'))
IF vCheckCursor = 1 THEN
   DROP CURSOR c1
ENDIF

DECLARE c1 CURSOR FOR SELECT PARTNAMEPC FROM PARTINFO +
WHERE PARTNAMEPC CONTAINS 'RP%-7'
OPEN c1
FETCH c1 INTO vPARTNAMEPC INDICATOR iv1
WHILE SQLCODE <> 100 THEN
SET VAR vSrchReplDesc = (SRPL(.vPARTNAMEPC,.vSearchString,.vReplaceString,0))
  UPDATE PARTINFO SET PARTNAMEPC = .vSrchReplDesc WHERE CURRENT OF c1
  FETCH c1 INTO vPARTNAMEPC INDICATOR iv1
ENDWHILE

DROP CURSOR c1
PAUSE 2 USING 'Done.'
RETURN

Hope it helps!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak

I am wanting to replace ONLY specific wording in a specific column leaving the rest of the wording in the field. I have looked at the SRPL function and tried this code but it does not update the column for those rows meeting the filter.
I have also tried it using the 0 for the last argument with no success.

UPDATE PARTINFO SET PARTNAMEPC = (SRPL('2x10 8','2x10 8','2x10x96',1)) where PARTNUM CONTAINS 'RP%-7'

Any blues clues?
