How do I replace quotation marks with double angle quotation marks, still keeping the word in the mi

Hi,
Does anyone know how to replace quotation marks with double angle quotation marks, still keeping the word in the middle?
For example: I search for a word with quotation marks by typing in: (")(\w+)(") in the "find what" field. What should I type in the "change to" field?
I'd be very grateful for answers!

It's much simpler: find " and replace with " (make sure that 'Use typographer's quotes' is enabled in the preferences).

Are you not getting my question.Obviously not. That's why we've asked you to clarify it. Twice, at least.
whatever data contenting in Variable, it must print as its on the screen.This code does that.
String s = "a\nb\tc;"
System.out.println(s);The variable s contains a reference to a String object. That String object holds 5 characters: 'a', newline, 'b', tab, 'c'. The println prints out exactly what's in that String--those 5 characters. Note that there is not even one single backslash in that String.
a
b cThis is exactly what you asked for.
Now let's say I create a file in Notepad, and I type the following, and then save it:
a\nb\tcThat file contains 7 characters. 'a', '\', 'n', 'b', '\', 't', 'c'. If I read that file with Buffered reader, it will give me a String object with those same 7 charcters. If I print it out it will print out those 7 characters.
a\nb\tcNote that in both cases, I am printing out exactly what is in the String.
Think carefully on what is the same and what is different between those two cases, and use it to form a clearer definition of your problem. Remember, we want to know what you're trying to accomplish. Just saying "I want to replace backslashes" tells us how you're trying to solve your problem.

SQL Injection, replace single quote with two single quotes?

Is replacing a single quote with two single quotes adequate
for eliminating
SQL injection attacks? This article (
http://www.devguru.com/features/kb/kb100206.asp
) offers that advice, and it
enabled me to allow users to search name fields in the
database that contain
single quotes.
I was advised to use "Paramaterized SQL" in an earlier post,
but I can't
understand the concept behind that method, and whether it
applies to
queries, writes, or both.

Then you can use both stored procedures and prepared
statements.
Both provide better protection than simply replacing
apostrophes.
Prepared statements are simple:
Set myCommand = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
...snip...
myCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Users([Name], [Email])
VALUES (?, ?)"
...snip...
myCommand.Parameters.Append
myCommand.CreateParameter("@Name",200,1,50,Name)
myCommand.Parameters.Append
myCommand.CreateParameter("@Email",200,1,50,Email)
myCommand.Execute ,,128 'the ,,128 sets execution flags that
tell ADO not to
look for rows to be returned. This saves the expense of
creating a
recordset object you don't need.
Stored procedures are executed in a similar manner. DW can
help you with a
stored procedure through the "Command (Stored Procedure)"
server behavior.
You can see a full example of a prepared statement by looking
at DW's
recordset code after you've created a recordset using version
8.02.

Replace single quotes

I know that I have to trap the single quotes when inserting names, streets, etc.
I tried to use replace() and to replace the single ones with 2 singles. Could somebody help me with the syntax as I'm getting all the time errors. Here is the code:
Insert into t1 values(Last_name, First_name, Street)
Last_name = 'last_Name's+app', First_name = first_name's_app', Street = 'street's_app'
Insert into t1 values((Replace(last_name, ','')), (replace(First_name,',''),(replace(Street,','')))
Also, do I need to worry when I passing the single quotes to the calling program?
Thanks a lot.

I am an ASP developer and new to JSP. I want to know that how we can replace a singlequote( ' ) in a string, like we do by "replace" function in ASP.

What do you mean by replacing the (') if you want to use the (') or (") in the String then you can use
\" or \'

With the above statement you are replacing single quote with another single quote
(which is nonsense).

In the above query last line '-qVAGX_DRUG.MEDICINALPRODUCT' is a dynamic variable which may or may not contain the single quotes.This is not a dynamic variable but a string value:

Single slash to Double Slash Convertion

hi all,
i want to replace single slash (\) by double slash(
) in a path , ex :
...\..\.. should become
.. when i m trying to do so,it takes it as an escape sequence character. Can anyone help me plz

Use double-slash to represent the single slash and a quadruple slash to represent the double-slash.
stringreplace( Transaction.PropertyName , "
Above statement translates to replace "\" with "
" when the expression in the Link Editor is evaluated.
The other option is to create a local property called Slash with a default value of \ in the property editor.
Your expression would look like:
stringreplace( Transaction.PropertyName , Local.Slash , Local.Slash & Local.Slash )
Of course, you could use another local property of double-slash if you wish.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jai.

How to replace double quotes with a single quote in a string ?

Hi All:
Can some one tell me how to replace double Quote (") in a string with a single quote (') ? I tried to use REPLACE function, but I couldn;t get it worked.
My example is SELECT REPLACE('STN. "A"', '"', ''') FROM Dual --This one throws an error
Thanks,

Whether it is maybe not the more comfortable way, I like the quoting capabitlity from 10g :
SQL> SELECT REPLACE('STN. "A"', '"', q'(')') FROM Dual;
REPLACE(
STN. 'A'{code}

Replacing " (double quote) with ' (single quote)

Hi there,
I have the following method to manipulate user input. All I want to do is, to replace the double quote with a single quote. The implementation I tried was,
this.replace(desc, "\"", "'");
This does not work for me. It jsut removes the double quote and does not introduces the single quote. Could any one please advise?
Thanks,
Des
public static String replace(String line, String oldString, String newString) {
          if(line != null && oldString != null && newString != null) {
               int index = 0;
               while ((index = line.indexOf(oldString, index)) >= 0) {
                    line = line.substring(0, index) +
                         newString +
                         line.substring(index + oldString.length());
                    index += newString.length();
          return line;
     }

Bad luck.. I am unable to get it still.
This is the code I am using (implemetation is in a JSP. I am using this code to test it).
public class Test{
public static void main(String args[]){
     String s = args[0];
     Test t = new Test();
     String doubleQuote = "\"";
     System.out.println(" output :"+ t.replace(s,doubleQuote,"'"));
     //System.out.println(" output :"+ t.replace(s,"\"","'"));
     //System.out.println(" output :"+ t.replace('"', '\''));
public static String replace(String line, String oldString, String newString) {
          if(line != null && oldString != null && newString != null) {
               int index = 0;
               while ((index = line.indexOf(oldString, index)) >= 0) {
                         System.out.println(" line count :");
                    line = line.substring(0, index) +
                         newString +
                         line.substring(index + oldString.length());
                    index += newString.length();
          return line;
}mshn02
The main problem is I am stuck with the server's version of Java (which I have no control on it). I could not use 1.4.2

Firefox is replacing double quotes with single quotes.

In WordPress and at other sites where I input and save text, Firefox is replacing double quotes with single quotes when I save. It's also showing double quotes as single quotes on websites. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and it's still happening.

Do you have the needed font installed?
