Hello-
I had a query to insert values into a table where some of the entries
were empty:
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (VALUE_1, VALUE_2)
VALUES ('Hello', '')
which worked like a champ. I discovered some single ticks in the data I
wanted to place in the VALUE_2 field (the data is "Woman's Health") so,
since I'm using Python to drive this, I thought I could change the
single ticks in the above query to double ticks:
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (VALUE_1, VALUE_2)
VALUES ("Hello", "")
but I now get an error complaining about a "zero length delimited
identifier". Rats. So:
1. What's going on above with single and double quotes?
2. How can I insert single (and double) ticks into my data fields?
Thanks for you help,
--greg
