I'm looking for the db2 equivalent of T-SQL's:
INSERT INTO People (Surname) VALUES ('O''Hara');
Use two apostrophes '' to get a single apostrophe on DB2 too, according to the DB2 Survival Guide. Isn't that working for you?
Brabster is correct. You are supposed to escape ' with ''
So to insert O'Hara , you will have to write O''Hara
Excerpt from:
http://www.michael-thomas.com/tech/db2/db2_survival_guide.htm
Escape character.
To insert a single quote, use 2 single quotes ( '' ). To insert pet's use the following pet''s.
Example: insert into MYTABLE (question,answer) values ('What is your pet''s name?','blacky') `
just make it simple.
Keep your query in the single quotes ('). and where ever you are using qoutes, make it double. for e.g. u want to insert ...... I'm fine. There's an answer.
in SQL we need to give ....... 'I''m fine. There''s an answer.'
I was trying to insert into DB2 a regex expression for an email address. I thought I had to escape all characters as outlined at the proceeding link, but escaping only the single quote contained within the regex seems to be all I needed to escape to get it properly inserted into the database:
