Hi,

I need to change a value in one of my fields so that the string "%20" would be replaced by a space, " ".

Eg. in the field the value "United%20States" would change to "United States", how do I achieve this?

Thanks in advance,

G

[sql]
UPDATE table
SET fieldname = REPLACE(fieldname, '%20', ' ')
[/sql]

Just for references it seems that you inserted a string that was urlencode, so to prevent this in the future you could always urldecode the string before inserting it into the database.

Cheers,

Thanks guys.

In vB2 it needed to be in that urlencode format, but it seems in vB3 it needs to be the other way.

Cheers!!!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
