Apostraphe's etc..

Here is the script: <?php $dbConn = odbc_connect("mailnews", "" ,""); $nTitle = stripslashes($nTitle); $nBody = stripslashes($nBody); $nUser = stripslashes($nUser); if($nChecked == "1") { $qryStr = "INSERT INTO news ( EDATE, EXPIRES, DATEEXPIRES, TITLE, BODY, EUSER ) VALUES ( DATE(), TRUE, '$nExpiresOn', '$nTitle', '$nBody', '$nUser' ) "; } else { $qryStr = "INSERT INTO news ( EDATE, TITLE, BODY, EUSER ) VALUES ( DATE(), \"$nTitle\", \"$nBody\", \"$nUser\" ) "; } echo "$qryStr"; odbc_exec($dbConn, $qryStr); ?> I want to insert apostrophe's into my little database. For instance the user enters this in the fields provided: My Title's Name This body text hasn't got nothing. My Name's Cool The resulting SQL string is this: INSERT INTO news ( EDATE, TITLE, BODY, EUSER ) VALUES ( DATE(), "My Title's Name", "This body text hsn't got nothing.", "my Name's Cool" ) I'm trying to insert into TEXT fields in Access 2000. Using Access's SQL builder (Query thingy) it indicates that you can surround fields in "" that have ' in them without the need for escaping. Here is the error: Warning: SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '' is not a valid name. Make sure that it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not too long., SQL state 37000 in SQLExecDirect in C:\PMPCWEB\mail\addnewsitem.php on line 17 Here is the other method I have tried: INSERT INTO news ( EDATE, TITLE, BODY, EUSER ) VALUES ( DATE(), 'My Title\'s Name', 'This body text hasn\'t got nothing.', 'My Name\'s Cool' ) With this error: Warning: SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''My Title\'s Name', 'This body text hasn\'t got nothing.''., SQL state 37000 in SQLExecDirect in C:\PMPCWEB\mail\addnewsitem.php on line 17 I give.. Anyonve have some ideas for me please? Thanks in advance RDB
