I have the latest version of Links SQL. I need to change all the links in a category. Is there any easy way to change all the links globally? Now I am doing it one by one in Admin-browse-edit-modify. We use the same URL for that category. I know nothing about MySQL. Any advice?

It would be useful if you told us what you were trying to change.

Hi, I am trying to change all the URLs in each link in my catergory. All the links in this category use the same URL and I need to change all of them to another URL. Now I go to Admin and browse. I will go to each link and edit them one by one. As I have hundreds of links, it is ver time consuming and repeatitive. Do you know a way that I can make a global change and all my URL will change at once to a new URL? Thanks.

Don't quote me on this but......
UPDATE Links SET URL = 'OLD_URL_HERE' WHERE URL = 'NEW_URL_HERE';

I think Old_URL_Here and New_URL_Here should be switched...
SO....
Try: Update Category set FEILD = 'New_URL_Here' where FIELD = 'Old_URL_Here'
This is assuming the Table is Category.... if the field is in Links, change Category to Links
