I got 343 post in a forum thread. (newbb module)

and I need to change 343 of the titles of the posts.

how do i go about without manual editing 1 by 1 through the admin interface.

is there any command in mysql that i can use to change text "aaa" to text "bbb" ?

Use something lijke
UPDATE table SET title = REPLACE(title,'fromaaa','tobbb') WHERE ...
Make a backup before.
Test the where clause with a
SELECT * FROM table WHERE ..
