RE: [PHP] Replacing the contents of one field with a group of selected records all at once -( without harming the rest of the database / records)

update TABLE set FIELDNAME='Banana' where FIELDNAME='Apple'; I assume that's what you're trying to do? ----Original Message----- From: dwalker [mailto:dwalker@healthyproductsplus.com] Sent: Friday, 18 October 2002 5:43 PM To: PHP Subject: [PHP] Replacing the contents of one field with a group of selected records all at once -( without harming the rest of the database / records) I have about 1000 records within my database -- I'd like to change 1 field within 50 of the records. Is there a down and dirty method of populating the one field within all 50 records at one time? The query to obtain the 50 records is pretty straight forward. if the word APPLE were contained within the field for all 50 of the records, how do I change the word to BANANA without harming any of the other records??? I export my database as a kind of 'security' measure, but would hate to try to bring it all back.
