hello all,

i have the ff. requirement: let say this is the content of my DB field

"Some text in this text field, Some text in this text field, Some text in this text field, Some text in this text field, Some text in this text field, Some text in this text field, Some text in this text field,
1,234,456.00"

now is it possible to display the numeric characters into asterisk like instead of displaying 1,234,456.00 it will display *,***,***.**

thanks

Fidel

the ugly way is to use 10 wrapped replace statements.
here is an example of the first 3:
replace(replace (replace(field,'0','*'),'1','*'),'2','*')
