Hi all
I am trying to update the description of fields and tables quite
successfully. Thanks to Dorin and all other who have helped me with it.
Now I am trying to write a description with and apostrophe (') in the text
and this doesn't work. For eg.
UPDATE RDB$RELATION_FIELDS SET RDB$DESCRIPTION = 'Bhavbhuti's notebook'
WHERE RDB$RELATION_NAME = 'ACCOUNTS' AND RDB$FIELD_NAME = 'REMARKS';
I have tried to replace 'Bhavbhuti's notebook' with "Bhavbhuti's notebook"
and [Bhavbhuti's notebook] just in case I am allowed to use the ', but no luck.
I have also tried 'Bhavbhuti\'s notebook', 'Bhavbhuti\\'s notebook',
'Bhavbhuti/'s notebook' and 'Bhavbhuti//'s notebook' but still no luck.
Just for record I am doing this from VFP via ODBC from a Table Builder I
have created. It allows creation of FB and VFP tables using the same VFP
interface. It is almost done, so just in case anybody wants to have a try
just let me know I can send a copy.
Please advise.
Regards
Bhavbhuti
