Re: how to insert quote in a column

Harvinder,

if you do

select chr(39) from dual, you will get the answer as a '

Therefore, you could do

select chr(39)||1||chr(39) from dual to get:-

'1'

so now you can help your self.

for future when ever you need to find the ascii of such characters, do:-

select ascii('?') from dual;

and you will get 63,

and doing select chr(63) from dual; will get you a ?

hope it helps,

raja
