Replace certain charachters in ALL fields?
Does anyone know if it is possible to replace all occurences of a charachter in all of the SQL database entries? For example;

a needs to be replaced with b in field 1, 2 3,4 and 5.
d needs to be replaced with c in field 1, 2 3,4 and 5.

I've had a look through the MySQL docs, but I'm a little lost. I understand the LIKE % stuff, but can't see if/how its possible to do what I'm looking for Unsure

Cheers
