Re: Re^3: weird DBI error re: parameter binding (guess)

I tried escaping the ' but that didn't work. I agree it probably is the ' causing the problems. I know that Access can handle and because I use them all the time when people put spaces in field names i'm working with.

Just to be clear, the DBD mostly doesn't need to "handle" `[` and `]` for them to just be passed along to the database to deal with and to "work". The problem is that the DBD code that looks for placeholder `?`s knows to not grab `?`s inside of quotes but doesn't (at appears) know that it should ignore quotes inside of square brackets. I doubt you can escape the single quote in a way that will both be understood by the DBD `?`-finding code and correctly understood by the database. The DBD code needs to be enhanced to support this syntax. - tye	[reply]

I think enhancing the code in such a way would support poor database naming conventions... I'm all for leaving it to break under those conditions.	[reply]
