Editing content contained in a field

I need some quick help with constructing a MYSQL query to help solve a
small problem that I have.

I havea table in my database where I need to search for text withing a
field and delete it. The text that I need to find is not the only text
in the field, it is in the field with other text.

I am able to single out the records that need updating by using the
statement:
SELECT * FROM `events` WHERE `EVT_name` LIKE '%Jazz Stage: %';

How do I edit the fields using a simple query?

Thanks for the help.

Hi folks, I have an Access 2000 db with a memo field. Into the memo field I put text with bold attributes, URL etc etc What I need to to is converting the rich text contained into the memo field in plain text. That's because I truncate the string text but if, when I truncate it there's a rich tag the code following the truncated string is corrupted. Don't know if it's clear enough.

Given HTML text (likely from SQL), is there any method that could be employed to render server and/or custom controls that are contained inside of that text? I would be loading content from a database and would like to 'expand' the server controls. Possibly even recursively. Hope this makes sense, but I am guessing the answer is no. If this is something that can't be done, I am looking at creating my own markup tags and searching for...

Access 2003, using a bound form. I'm seeing rather annoying behaviour when editing data in a control with a default value. It only happens when the form is on a new record. A specific example: on my form, the first control is bound to a date/ time field and has a default value of now(). When users need to change this control's data, they'll most commonly need to alter the time part leaving the date as is. But, on a new record, when...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
