I am stumped on how to create a statement that will find all instances of a field (price) and change the .98 to .99. Looking through the MySQL book of P. Dubois, it seems I need to do pattern matching but I can't figure out how to combine the statement into an UPDATE.
Doea anyone have an off - the shelf query for something like this?
update MyTable set price=price+.01 where price like '%.98'
