Thread: replacing a word in a column

Hello everybody,

Sorry if my question is too easy,

Can I search after a word in a column and replace it with another word
just using queries??
I'm using PHP and MySQL database.

e.g:

my name is payam  -->  my name was payam

any help?
thanks,
payam.

You DO realize this is the Postgresql documentation mailing list, the one
for making suggestions and changes to the documentation of Postgresql?

It's not like I'm being pissy about it, it's just highly unlikely that
you'll find enough MySQL expertise to help you out here.

I'm pretty sure you can do this, but you need to install postgresql
first.
