[ADMIN] Change a character in a text field

Is there some way with a SQL state to interrogate a text field, and
replace characters.

For example, we would like all "|"'s to be changed to something else, on
a regular basis...
We could unload the rows, change them, and load back, but was hoping
someone had
a slicker way to do it in place..

Thanks,
Naomi
