How to replace text based on filter?

I'm trying to write a query to replace text but only based on values of another column. Example:

 

MainSideDrinkPrice
Burger Soda5.00
 FriesSoda2.00
BurgerFriesSoda7.00
Salad  2.50
SaladApple 3.00

 

I want to replace the blanks in [Drink] with "Orange Juice" only if [Main] = "Salad" and [Side] = "Apple". Using the GUI and simply replacing texts didn't help me since it still filled all the blanks in [Drink]. Not sure how to procede and I'd rather avoid creating a calculated column

Hi there,

 

I am trying to replace values in a column where if value is M is replaced by Para Assement and when its 17 it should be replaced with Master's Degree, but when I replace M by Para Assement then it also replaces and overrites all values in 17 as 'Para Assementaster's Degree'.

 

How to correct this now. Please help

Thanks.
