I am creating a view and I was asked to do a 'replace' and a 'cast', so as an example:

```
SELECT CAST(qtyshipped AS INT) AS 'QTYShipped', REPLACE(itemval,'.','')
FROM Database

```

Within the view, should not actually change the information in the database but just in the query correct? (It works perfectly in my sandbox server but i just want to confirm)
