i would like to do a find and replace inside an entire database not just a table.
How can i alter the script below to work?
update [table_name] set [field_name] = replace([field_name],'[string_to_find]','[string_to_replace]'); Do i just use an asterix?
update * set [field_name] = replace([field_name],'[string_to_find]','[string_to_replace]');

Go to phpMyAdmin and to the database you want to update. Select the required table name and go to “Search” tab. Click on the “Find and Replace” button. Enter the word to be found, and the replacement word.
Find data across a MySQL connection by using the text search feature on any number of tables and schemas. From the schema tree, select the tables, schemas, or both to search and then right-click the highlighted items and click Search Data Table from the context menu.
sqldump to a text file, find/replace, re-import the sqldump.
Dump the database to a text filemysqldump -u root -p[root_password] [database_name] > dumpfilename.sql
Restore the database after you have made changes to it.mysql -u root -p[root_password] [database_name] < dumpfilename.sql
