I want to thank everyone that replied to my question
I will probably end up using Dave Clark's suggestion
Select REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(a.bfname, ',', ' '), '"', ' '), '''', '
') as New_Bfname from file a
But I will need to test it out first
Birgitta's suggestion (of using TRANSLATE) will perform better -- because it is a single function call rather then three nested function calls.
Sincerely,
Dave Clark
