hello all hackers. This is some kind of an interesting situation although many of you must have already gone through it. I am facing a situation where I have to use psycopg2 and insert rows in a postgresql table. That's pritty easy and no need to say that it works well. But there are some entries which have an ' in the value. I have a venders table in my database and one of the values tryed was "His Master's Voice " now the master's word has the ' which is used for starting and ending a varchar value for postgresql or almost any standard RDBMS. Does any one know what is the way out of this? how do you let the ' go as a part of the string? I have used %s as placeholder as in queryString = "insert into venders values ('%s,%s,%s" % (field1,field2,field3 ) ... This is not working for the ' values. can any one suggest a suitable solution? happy hacking. Krishnakant.
