hi, with the regexp_replace function can replace a character by
another, for example:

SELECT clie_nmcliente, regexp_replace(clie_nmcliente,'"','*','g')
FROM cadastro.cliente
WHERE clie_nmcliente like '%"%';
	
this function could solve your problem, only have to change the name
of each table ...

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION replace_char(oldcharacter character
varying, newcharacter character varying)
  RETURNS void AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
 rowtable RECORD;
BEGIN
 FOR rowtable IN SELECT * FROM cadastro.cliente LOOP
  UPDATE cadastro.cliente set clie_nmcliente =
regexp_replace(clie_nmcliente,oldcharacter,newcharacter,'g');
 END LOOP;
END;
$BODY$
  LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

I run this query to change the text " by * :

SELECT replace_char( '"' , '*' );

should read the documentation:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/functions-matching.html#FUNCTIONS-POSIX-REGEXP

Saludos y abrazos...
