[REBOL] Re: ODBC
From: ric_shepard:fishgame:state:ak:us at: 9-Dec-2000 14:21
Your 'scrambled' dat is probably the result of passing 'unquoted'
string data to ODBC/ SQL.
what you have: >> firstname: "Joe"
== "Joe"
>> print firstname
Joe
what you need: >> firstname: {"Joe"}
== {"Joe"}
>> print firstname
"Joe"
so, try this:
firstname: {"Joe"}
insert db-port [{INSERT INTO reboltest (fname) VALUES (?)} firstname]
should make all the difference.
