SQL help

[Darryl Hoar]

Greetings,
I have a table in my database called item.  It has two fields: item and
description.

Unfortunately the item field has got data with quotes around it. IE
"KP-00310".  I
need to clean up the data and have the field contain just KP-00310.  Since I
have
10,000 records, I need a update statement or something to clean that up.

Any ideas ?

thanks,
Darryl
