Hi Monks,

I have a generic question. I am getting error while executing a query containing spaces and single quote. I know binding value and quote function is the solution, but I want any solution in my current script.My code is like this.. 

my $result = $self->get_db->query(qq|select top 1 comp,ugp,compc_rg fr
+om fs_info $SQL_SELECT_HINT where fs='$fs_name'|);

$fs_name has spaces and single quotes. And I am using selectall_arrayref instead of prepare and execute.. like this.. 
$ret = $dbh->selectall_arrayref($pq);
$pq-> query passed by $self->get_db->query()..

Any help how to do in this scenario. I am getting below error.
