Subj:		Teradata SQL function for SQL server 'REPLACE'

From:		Agarwal, Rishi

Hi,

I need to rewrite the below SQL server query in Teradata.

     SELECT  ProgramID,
                REPLACE(ProgramName, '|', '!'),
                pt.ProgramTypeID,
                pt.ProgramTypeName
     FROM      AI_DW.DIM_PROGRAM p
               JOIN AI_DW.PROGRAM_TYPE pt
                   on pt.ProgramTypeID = p.ProgramTypeID

There is no REPLACE function in teradata. We can use CASE statement to achieve this. But what if there are more than one occurrence of '|' found in the string. Is there any other substitute of REPLACE function in teradata.

Thanks & Regards,

Rishi
