Quote

FUNCTION Quote ( Name AS String ) AS String

Returns a quoted identifier so that you can freely insert it in a query. This identifier can be a table or field name.

The quoting mechanism depends on the database server driver, so this method is needed if you need to write database-independant code.


Example

' Returns the number of records in a query
' sTable is the name of the table. It can include reserved characters, so we need
' to quote it!

rResult = Handle.Exec("SELECT COUNT(*) AS nRecord FROM " & DB.Quote(sTable))

PRINT rResult!nRecord
