If the text includes double quotes, for example I have to transfer text strings where double quotes are included for the indication of the measuring unit inch, then the UPDATE – SQL command does not work. For example lprFieldValue = "1/2"x2" Hex headbolt" gives the VFP error "Function name is missing )". I have tried several way of mixing apostrophe and double quote combinations but with no success. Do you have any idea to resolve my problem?

Ooops. It should be

lprFieldValue = [1/2"x2" Hex headbolt]
lcUpdateStr = [UPDATE MYSQLTABLE SET ] + lprFieldName + [='] + lprFieldValue + [']
nUpdate=SQLEXEC(nCon, lcUpdateStr)
