I am having a problem inserting names with apostrophes into the MySQL
database.  I am using ASP as my front end with standard SQL statements to
add, edit and delete records.  I read the section in the manual on escape
characters and have played around with many different variations trying to
get it to work with absolutely no luck.

The statement I am currently using looks like this:
        lname = Replace(Request.Form("lname"),"'","''")

I have tried using the backslash character and several variations of
different numbers of apostrophes.

I would appreciate any help as this is the last problem to be solved before
the database is functional.  The rest of the debugging has been completed.

Thank-you in advance,
Loretta
