hi,
the following query solves u'r problem if u have character 'A' upto second occurence in ename column.
select replace(decode(nvl(substr(ename,1,instr(ename,'A',1,2)),'1'),'1',ename,substr(ename,1,instr(ename,'A',1,2)-1)),'A','X')||
replace(substr(ename,decode(instr(ename,'A',1,2),0,null,instr(ename,'A',1,2)),length(ename)),'A','XX') from emp
bye,
raj
