SQL Essentials: REGEXP_REPLACE Function Explained

Overview

REGEXP_REPLACE is a function in Saved Search Formulas that enables users to manipulate text using regular expressions, offering a powerful tool for data transformation and extraction.

However, the real flexibility comes with its optional parameters, allowing for more nuanced control over the replacement process.
