Hi, did anyone encountered an error while inserting info into a field in SQL svr with words containing ( ' ) sign? Lets say:( Cancer Survivor's Journey ) - this string while being inserted gives me an error msg, and all others that use ( ' ). It takes it as being the end of value for the specific field to be inserted.Is there a fix?C |

For every single quote ' in your string, add another ' adjacent to it. This escapes the quote and should fix your problem.-- monkey |
