Solution 1

If this is throwing an error try -

"UPDATE MyTable SET MyColumn = (Select REPLACE(MyColumn, '" + MyTextBox1.Text + "','" + MyTextBox2.Text + "'))", MyConnection);

Solution 2

hi
you said "named MyColumn of Access table MyTable.."
are you using Access as your database?

Hi drago,
Actually Access does not have some sql functions. I asked you because the way you write the query is a little different from sql (and I am not master on access). try replacing the ' with " in answer1. It may help you.

hi Aidin!
u r right..i need the query which writes in Access..for example Replace("Word", "Word", "NewWord")
i tried different methods included the syntax above..but none of them fire the event..i will try again.
by the way u r a master on helping..thank u for ur informing about the problem's solution..i'm grateful for ur care..and u, Abhinav..
