Not certain whether this should be on this site or PL/SQL site.
I have a piece of PL/SQL where if I have a ' character in the data, causes the error ORA-01756: quoted string not properly terminated. I think the offending line is something like:
Address_line := '&Addr1'; (where Addr1 contains ' )
Is there a way of setting the default quote character differently??

Hi Dave Platt,

You can give '' two times the single quote or ''' three times. please try it. I'm not sure which of the above will work.

Thanks
