Converting single quote to double - help please

Question

Hi,
Please suggest me how to insert the dml_stmt into the table column..
I have the field called dml_statement field, in that user will give the dml statements..
my program will pass this argument to the procedure and that procedure will insert the data into the table called dml_table(in dml_stmt column)
For simple insert stmt, data is inserting into the table but for the dml whoes having the single quote, it does not getting inserted into the table...
Let me explain this more clearly:
1)ENTER THE DML_STMT : INSERT INTO TABLE_NAME(COL1) VALUES(3434);
  ABOVE DML IS GETTING INSERTED BY THE PROCEDURE INTO THE TABLE DML_TABLE:
2)ENTER THE DML_STMT : INSERT INTO DML_TABLE(DML_STMT) VALUES('3424');
  ABOVE DML IS NOT GETTING INSERTED BY THE PROCEDURE, I HAVE FOUND
  THE PROBLEM TOO BUT CANT OVERCOME THIS.BECAUSE OF THE SINGLE QUOTE PROCEDURE
  CANT INSERT THE ABOVE DML INTO THE DML_TABLE
{code}
I tried with replace function, but i cant pass the dml_stmt field
something like this :
select replace('INSERT INTO DML_TABLE(DML_STMT) VALUES('3424');','chr(39)','"') from dual;
i know above qry wont work, but i should do something like above to solve this ....
Please suggest me how to solve this prob ..
