Hi,
 
I have a query on which I'm doing a query of queries to find specific
values.  One of my values has a single quote in it.  When I dump the query,
I can see the value with the single quote.  But when I do a Q of Q on it to
find the specific record based on a string comparison, I get zero results.
I've tried using preserveSingleQuotes() around the value, and even tried
replacing the value's single quote with two single quotes, but I can't find
the right combination to get it to work.  Either I get zero results, or a
ColdFusion "error executing database query" (query of queries syntax error)
which is actually kind of funny since it's not really a database query
anyway.  But that's beside the point.
 
Anyway, here is my sample code to show you what's happening.  If anyone can
figure this one out, I would greatly appreciate it.  I must be "forgetting"
something simple!
 
<cfset qDave = queryNew("mystring")>
<cfset queryAddRow(qDave)>
<cfset querySetCell(qDave,"mystring","This is Dave's test.")>
<cfset sSearchString = "This is Dave's test.">
<cfdump var="#qDave#">
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="q">
 SELECT *
 FROM qDave
 WHERE mystring = '#sSearchString#'
</cfquery>
<cfdump var="#q#">
 
TIA!
 
Dave
