how to avoid & prompting in sql+?

I have a text file with lots of insert statements. The textual values of the varchar columns are provided through some other script. Sometimes the strings contain the "&" char, so when executing the insert statements in sql+ I'm always prompted for a value.

Is there a way to avoid this prompting? I'd like sql+ to consider this char as any other char and just insert it. I could do a global replace in the text file replacing the "&" with some other character, before running it, but isn't there a setting in sql+ to ignore it?

the db is 8.1.7 run on Solaris
