What you need to do is convert each single apostraphe into a pair of apostraphes. I did this using the replace function in VBScript. It looked something like this:

SQL

name = name.Replace ("'","''")

SQL Server will interpret a pair of apostraphes as a single apostraphe in the database. The replace statement works just fine even if there are no apostraphes in the string. This should work equally well for Visual Basic or any other development tool.

The SQL syntax to insert a string like this looks something like:

SQL

INSERT Table1 (columnName)
VALUES ('Merlin D''Souza')

This will insert a single quote or apostrophe into the field between the "D" and the "S".

mysql_real_escape_string will do the trcik.

C++

//definition
unsigned long mysql_real_escape_string(
MYSQL *mysql, //pointer of mysql connection
char *to, //pointer of destination char array
const char *from, //source character array
unsigned long length//length of character array. not a single byte more
)

oh by the way, if it is php then

PHP

mysql_real_escape_string($val, $conn);
