Thanks Robert. That's what I'm not sure of. The PCi compliance scans are saying 
they are vulnerable to SQL injections, and if I enter something like this in a 
form field being inserted by a TAF:

Steve"); UPDATE customers…

then look at the database table, that's exactly what's in there. Shouldn't it 
be:

Steve\"); UPDATE customers…

if it is being escaped? I have to admit to a lack of knowledge is this area, so 
I apologize if I'm misunderstanding what the PCI compliance outfit is looking 
for. I can send you the specific URL's in private if you'd like.

Thanks!

 -- Steve
