SQL update statement issue
This is probably something completely simple for most of you.. but i am having a mild issue and Google isn't helping me.
basically i'm using some VBA to update a SQL Express table.
Most of the time this works perfectly .. but on occasion a user enters a "BOAT_KIND" (stored as a variable "strBoat") with a ' in it ( exmaple: TRIMARAN 105' NIGEL ).
Having that extra ' in it is breaking the update statement.
There has to be a way to rearrange
