You have one parameter too much. Use

Replace(Name,   ','  ,  ' ' ) as Name


But you can use Subfield also if you only have one field as Name.

PurgeChar(Serial, ';') as Serial,

PurgeChar(Petent, '*') as Petent,

PurgeChar(Name, chr(39)) as Name

You can use

Replace(Name, ',', ' ') as Name

or

Subfield(Name,',',1) & ' ' & Subfield(Name, ',', 2) as Name

Ok Thanks

I understood it we use  Subfield(Name,',',1) & ' ' & Subfield(Name, ',', 2) as Name

to maintain the space after comma
