Syntax error Replace dot with comma on MySQL SELECT?

Replace dot with comma on MySQL SELECT?

To replace dot with comma on SELECT, you can use REPLACE().

 Following is the syntax −

select replace(yourColumnName, '.' , ',' ) from yourTableName;

Let us first create a table −

mysql> create table DemoTable
(
   Value float
);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.63 sec)

Insert records in the table using insert command −

mysql> insert into DemoTable values(4.56);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values(456.23);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.12 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values(1078.3);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.22 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values(2000.50);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.26 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values(78.99);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.16 sec)

Display records from the table using select command −

mysql> select *from DemoTable;

This will produce the following output −

+--------+
| Value  |
+--------+
| 4.56   |
| 456.23 |
| 1078.3 |
| 2000.5 |
| 78.99  |
+--------+
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Following is the query to replace dot with comma on SELECT −

mysql> select replace(Value,'.',',') from DemoTable;

This will produce the following output −

+------------------------+
| replace(Value,'.',',') |
+------------------------+
| 4,56                   |
| 456,23                 |
| 1078,3                 |
| 2000,5                 |
| 78,99                  |
+------------------------+
5 rows in set (0.07 sec)
