You are right you don't need to escape the underscore.

Just curious....
Does Oracle accept escaping a ' with \'
Or do you have to escape a ' with '' in Oracle?

Hmmm... I had no idea :) Actually, I just had a look at the driver code
behind setString(). It actually looks pretty similar to what I wrote
earlier and doesn't escape the '_' as far as I can see.
synchronized (sbuf)
{
sbuf.setLength(0);
sbuf.ensureCapacity(x.length());
int i;
sbuf.append('\'');
for (i = 0 ; i < x.length() ; ++i)
{
char c = x.charAt(i);
if (c == '\\' || c == '\'')
sbuf.append((char)'\\');
sbuf.append(c);
}
sbuf.append('\'');
bind(parameterIndex, sbuf.toString(), type);
}
Does the '_' need to be escaped? Why? If so, the driver code should be
updated I guess.
Tom.
