Databases :: Double Quotation Marks In SQL Statement?
May 27, 2010
I'm having problem getting the syntax right for an SQL statement for a Progress database. I have the column "Resource" which is a reserved word and according to the Openedge SQL Reference I can only use reserved words if I delimit them with double quotation marks.
So how do I write this line...
Dim comm As New OdbcCommand("SELECT Resource FROM PUB.ActOper WHERE CreDate > TO_DATE ('05/24/2010')", conn)
...with double quotes around Resource? I've tried a bunch of different combinations but I get "Expression expected" or "valid continuation expected" or something similar.
I am wanting to concenate a string inserting a quote. How do I do that? i.e. label.text = "quotation mark" & "new" & " " & "name" I want to be able to see "new name" in the end with the actual quotation marks.
<div id="mydiv">This is a "div" with quotation marks</div>
I want to use regular expressions to return the following:
<div id='mydiv'>This is a "div" with quotation marks</div>
Notice how the id attribute in the div is now surrounded by apostrophes?
How can I do this with a regular expression?
Edit: I'm not looking for a magic bullet to handle every edge case in every situation. We should all be weary of using regex to parse HTML but, in this particular case and for my particular need, regex IS the solution.
Edit #2: Jens Ameskamp helped to find a solution for me but anyone randomly coming to this page should think long and very hard about using this solution. In my case it works because I am very confident of the type of strings that I'll be dealing with. I know the dangers and the risks and make sure you do to. If you're not sure if you know then it probably indicates that you don't know and shouldn't use this method.
I have one gridview footer template textbox and asp.net textbox. Here i need to check bothe textbox value are equal in if statement. How to convert both textbox in double and use in if statement to check.
at present our site has a search function which then populates a grid with results from our catalogue database... I'm trying to implement product availability into the grid, but the stock information is stored in a completely different database in a different location. Both the main search results and the stock levels have to be referenced in the same datasource to get them both in the same grid; does anyone have any thoughts on how to do this? I'm not hugely experienced with SQL, but could I create a view containing aspects of both db's or are these limited to a single db?

I am checking to see if minperc is null. However to check that it still is trying to convert the value to double. Cant figure out a way around it. Here is the error: Cannot cast DBNull.Value to type 'System.Double'. Please use a nullable type.
I am trying to pass a textbox integer to a sql statement in my code behind using the "where" statement to filter what I get from the mysql database but for some reason, it diplays nothing. If I change the variable in the "where" statement to an actual digit between 1 and 12, it works.
I need to save the marks in database for each student...I have one drop down list..In this drop down contain 2 std 3 std 4 std, etc..if the user click 2 std ,2 std subjects are display in the grid with textbox for marks upload...If the user click 3 std, 3 std subjects are display in the grid with textbox...and also save the entered marks into database..and i need to edit the marks.
Assuming i have a winform that has a button called "Create a Quote". Once user clicks it, a PDF File gets created on desktop. The PDF File has a fixed design/structure e.g. the logo is at the top left corner, the headers are fixed, etc. However, the data it self is pulled from a database.
As you see above, Quotation #, Description, Qty, U.P (USD), T.P (USD) records should be fetched from the db and dumped in the pdf template then create the pdf for user.

ERROR MESSAGE: Unclosed quotation mark after the character string ') '.Incorrect syntax near 's'.I am getting this error when adding a value to a table which contains a single quotation, value is: men'sthat value is been pass as the keyword name.this is the query that i am using: Dim sql2 As String = "INSERT INTO keyword_relation_type (business_id, keyword_name, keyword_id) VALUES ('" & business_id & "','" & keywords(i) & "','" & keywordsID(i) & " ') "
I'm running into a really weird issue: when a user copies text from another file and pastes into an ASP textbox, question marks occasionally appear. For example, copying text from one file ("P/U FILE5") pastes correctly into the ASP textbox, displaying as "P/U FILE5"
However, in the database, the text is stored as "P?/?U FILE?5"
So by way of checking and converting the textbox string to a byte array, I see byte values like this: "80 63 47 63 85 70 73 76 69 83 63 53" which means that when I actually look at the VALUE of the textbox string, it's actually sticking question marks in there. But they don't appear anywhere in the textbox!
I'm using linq to sql,everything seems to be working fine except one thing,I'm showing any mapped float fields from my db tables as "Double?" instead of "Double", and when binding to a datagrid, any of those "Double?"fields don't show.If I iterate through the items and spit out the property,the float value is indeed there and properly returned.
