Thank you all for the suggestions. They are all good.
We are currently using DB2, but need to target Oracle and MySql.
I will check to see if these have a REPLACE. I know DB2 and Oracle have
stored procedures, but not sure about MySql.
Thanks,
Edwin

FYI: if your database allows stored procedures, you will most likely
increase performance 2x to 3x by making this a stored procedure...if
that is a possibility, I would strongly suggest that you do it that
way instead.

What database are you using? I know a lot of the major databases have
