The 1st one didn't work, but the 2nd one did work. Fantastic! Thanks alot,
you saved me from frustrations.
Quoting John W. Holmes [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I'm having problem querying a table with a field value containing an
appostropy, please help. Using ODBC to connect MSAcess database.
$mQuery = CustomerID='$mCust';
$mCur2 = odbc_do( $mCnx, select Login from Emails where $mQuery
);
When it hits O'Donald, James, I get error in odbc_exec(). I tried
variations of $mQuery, including:
$mQuery = addslashes( $mQuery );
You don't want to use addslashes() on $mQuery, you want to use it on the
data you're inserting between the quotes, i.e. $mCust.
$mQuery = CustomerID=' . addslashes($mCust) . ';
If that still causes an error, your database may require quotes to be
escaped with another quote, instead of a backslash. In that case, you
can create a function like this
function addslashes2($data)
{ return str_replace(','',$data); }
Hope that helps.
