Perfect,

I learn this lesson now. This case is quite good.

My Best Regards

SELECT when,
CASE WHEN type = 'C' THEN 'Credit' END AS type
FROM mytable;

Assuming your column names are actually "when" and "type" you should just have to change "mytable" to the correct table name and run in psql or the SQL Window of pgAdmin or wherever you usually run your SQL queries to get what you want.
