Title: Snippet Manager minor problem
Post by: billhsln on May 03, 2011, 11:46:45 PM
It seems that the Snippet Manager does not like ' (single Quote marks) in file names.

was it in a iwb/eba file or in another file name?

My initial thought is that the ' is messing up the sql strings I create on the fly to work with the database.

It is in the file name.  I would guess that you are right about the SQL.  When loading the program to keep track of my Grandson's Pokemon, they have (') single quotes in some of the names.  What I did was when writing into SQL, I changed them to a ~ (tilde) char, then when reading back from SQL I convert back to (') single quote.  I know, if they ever decide to have a ~ (tilde) in the Pokemon name, then I am screwed, but it works ok for now.

What I did was remove the (') single quote from the file name and then pulled it in and it worked ok.
