checking and replacing "/" (slash) with "-" (dash)

[Pando]

Dear Gurus,

I have a file which contains the line..
..
"12345/67"
..

I need a perl or other command to check if the value contains "/" then eventually replace the "/" with a dash "-" so that it would look like
..
"12345-67"
..

Maximum points for all correct replies.
Thanks!

let do as:
#vi yourfile
:1,$s/\//-
then save and exit

Somewhat ugly:

perl -pi -e 's/(>.*)\/(.*<)/\1-\2/' file_name

Using sed

cat filename | sed 's/\//-/'
