    Hi

    I have a requirement where I have replace two different strings with another string.

    i.e. if there is 'Brigade Army or "Brigades Armies' in the result set, it should be replaced with 'BAY'.

    How can I achieve it using REPLACE or any other way?

    Nested replace will do that.

    REPLACE(REPLACE(SourceString,'Brigade Army','BAY'),'Brigades Armies','BAY')
