Gleb,

Thanks; using REPLACE(), as I understand it, would require me to list ALL
non-alpha characters, and assuming just ASCII characters, approx (127 - 52)
nested calls to REPLACE()...


select
  REPLACE(

       ...REPLACE(
            REPLACE(
              REPLACE(
                text,'~',''),
              '!',''),
            '@','')
     ...)
