Hi folks.

I've got a problem with regex_replace.  As you can see below psql displays the 
error saying the function does not exist.  Can anyone see why, and what I 
need todo to fix it.

Cheers

goole=# select distinct ud_rfl from used_diary where ud_rfl ~ ' *= *';
  ud_rfl
-----------
 12 = 1wk
 12=1WK
 12m = 1wk
 6=1WK
(4 rows)

goole=# select distinct regex_replace(ud_rfl,' *= *','+') from used_diary 
where ud_rfl ~ ' *= *';
ERROR:  function regex_replace(character varying, "unknown", "unknown") does 
not exist
HINT:  No function matches the given name and argument types. You may need to 
add explicit type casts.
goole=# select distinct replace(ud_rfl,'=','+') from used_diary where ud_rfl 
~ ' *= *';
  replace

 12 + 1wk
