Description:
mimic oracle's replace function. versions in pltcl
What version are you using? I think "replace" is new
for version 7.3.
As another poster has pointed out, "translate" works
for individual characters. Or you could code up your
own replace using the native functionality of pl/perl
or pl/tcl or such. Or you could just upgrade to 7.3.
--- Andy Mor
If you want character translation like the tr command under unix,
use TRANSLATE.
