How could you do this in MySQL?

Ok. I know this is a MySQL question. But many work on
ORACLE or MS-SQL should be able to answer this.

I have a table with a column used to store special information including special characters such as {} (Curly Brackets). When I try to create my table, I am getting an error at the point where the curly bracket starts. Actualy the problem is the curly bracket which is part of my data to be stored. I am sure there is a way of storing these kinds of characters in a DB table. How is it to be done?

Here is a typical line I am using...

INSERT INTO tablename (specialinfor) VALUES ("This is a string with curly brackets {something }.")

Anyone know how to tackle this?
