Hello All,

You must have been through this one, one time or another! How do you allow users to put an "'" (APOSTROPHE) in a varchar2 field? e.g. update table set column = 'ABC's XYZ'.

One option I know is, putting 2 apostrophes. Another would be to parse it in application before issuing an SQL statement.

Would you please "enlighten". Direct response will be appreciated.

thank you in advance.
