MySQL query to replace only the backslashes from folder path?
To replace backslashes with any other special character, use the REPLACE() method. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable827(Path text); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.69 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable827 values('C\MySQL');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.12 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable827 values('D\NewFolder\');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.47 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable827 values('E:\myFolder\MyDocument');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec)Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable827;
This will produce the following output −
+------------------------+ | Path | +------------------------+ | C\MySQL | | D\NewFolder\ | | E:\myFolder\MyDocument | +------------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to replace only the backslash from the folder path with another special character −
mysql> update DemoTable827 set Path=REPLACE(Path, '\', '----'); Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.18 sec) Rows matched: 3 Changed: 3 Warnings: 0
Let us check the table records once again −
mysql> select *from DemoTable827;
This will produce the following output −
+------------------------------+ | Path | +------------------------------+ | C----MySQL | | D----NewFolder---- | | E:----myFolder----MyDocument | +------------------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
