I have a table with a varchar field, such a field is HTML ENCODED. So, for example, the string "PLAIN WHITE T'S" is saved as "PLAIN WHITE T&#39;&#39;S" (double quotes are not part of the string, I use them for clarity only). I need to perform a SELECT statement on this table and get the values HTML DECODED and I wonder if there is a function that I can include in such a statement for this purpose, for example "SELECT htmldecode(fld1) FROM table1". I will appreciate anu comments about my issue.

Respectfully,
Jorge Maldonado
