Using sed how to replace comma before a specific string
I have a file temp.txt. Here wanted to replace comma(,) with || between Select and From keyword.
select emp_name,
emp_id,
loc
from emp_join ,
emp_loc
where emp_join.id = emp_loc.id
and join_date > to_date('2015-01-01','YYYY-MM-DD')
UNION
select emp_name,
emp_id,
loc
from emp_term,
emp_loc
where emp_term.id = emp_loc.id
and term_date = to_date('2015-01-01','YYYY-MM-DD');
I am using - sed command - sed 's/,/||/g' temp.txt
- but its replacing all comma in the file.
Is there a simple unix command that will allow me to do this?
