How to insert proper quotation marks?

How can we do this in Design View? I'm looking for something
like an "Insert Special Character" menu option.
Going into Code View and entering &ldquo ... &rdquo
is an uncomfortable workaround.

How to insert single quotation marks

Hi folks!
I'm having problem with inserting single quotation marks (').
I know this could be easily solved but I'm not sure what the best solution is.
Example
updatePackingMethod("That's it");
will throw a sql exception:
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''that's it'
my function is written like this
public boolean updatePackingMethod(String packName, int id){
String sql="Update PackMethod set PackMethodName='"+packName+"' where Id ="+ id;
try {
Statement stmt=conn.createStatement();
int result=stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
if(result>0)
return true;
catch (SQLException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
error.setError(ex.getMessage);
return false;
Any?
/Filip

public boolean updatePackingMethod(String packName, int id){
String sql=" Update PackMethod set PackMethodName= ? where Id = ? ";
PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
try {
pstmt = conn.prepareStatement( sql );
// pstmt.setXXX( index, paramValue );
// where XXX is datatype of parameter
// index is the Nth ? (question mark) in the sql
// paramValue is the value to be used instead of ?
pstmt.setString( 1, packName );
pstmt.setInt( 2, id );
int result=pstmt.executeUpdate( );
if(result>0)
return true;
catch (SQLException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
error.setError(ex.getMessage);
} finally {
if( pstmt != null ) pstmt.close();
return false;

How Do I Display Quotation Marks in Dynamic HTML Text

I'm using a dynamic text file that has some Quotation Marks
that need to be displayed with the content on certain words in the
TXT file.
How do i display Quotation Marks inside a Dynamic text field?
Please Advise. As soon as possible.
Thanks

Try this page - it does the job for you:

Otherwise search this forum for "Special and characters and
dynamic and text"
You'll see a couple of thread on the topic. You have to
encode the special characters for them to display correctly.

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).

How to escape the quotation mark?

I need to pass a Link Column from page 1 to page 2. I just found a bug in my program. When there is quotation mark in the string, the corresponding query cannot be displayed in page 2. However, using the same query, I can get the correct result in the SQL*Plus console. I don't know why. Is it because of the quotation mark? Thanks!

Thank you so much for your detailed explanation!
For your standard report query, I have a question
SELECT EMPNO, ENAME
FROM EMP
WHERE '"' || ENAME = :P126_TEXT
{code}
In my opinion, as long as I use :P126_TEXT in this query, and :P126_TEXT contains ", I will get this error:ERROR:
ORA-01740: missing double quote in identifier
Is that correct?

Inserting plain quotation marks

Using FM8 on Windows XP.
When typing quotation marks in FM, they are automatically converted into "typographic", er, “typographic” quotation marks.
The replacement depends on settings in maker.ini.
This is good, but for some code descriptions I need plain double quotes. Is there a keyboard shortcut I could use?
[Alt]+34 is no different from using the actual quote key.
I want to avoid my workaround, which is typing a quote in Notepad and copying it into FM.
Thanks
Johannes

Thanks a lot, Michael. Esc-quote is working fine.
I did have a look at the Character Sets manual rather than the User Guide, and there I found Control+", which wasn't working.
EDIT: Control+" applies to Unix only, so the information could still be correct if used in context ...
Error7103, my template uses "None" as language in code tags, so I probably won't encounter that problem.
Kind regards
Johannes

Internationalization - quotation marks

Hi,
How do I internationalize quotation marks?
Example [http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/64/quotation.png]

Java has no internationalization support for quotes, which is understandable as sometimes more than one type of quotes is used in a country (e.g. »...« in Germany).
I see only two ways to handle the task:
1. use two different characters for the initial and ending quote. Before output copy your text(s) to a temporary buffer and replace these characters by the desired quotes (String.replaceAll(...))
2. if you have only few quotes to display, break your text at the quotes and insert a variable which you can set according to your needs.

Printing a quotation mark (") in concatenate formula?

Hi, I'm trying to write a function using =CONCATENATE() and I want to know how to add a quotation mark to the output without it screwing up the forumula.
This doesn't print out the quotation mark " between B2 and B3:
=CONCATENATE(B2,""",B3)
I've been able to do it by referencing another absolute cell with a quotation mark in it, but that's definitely the wonky way to do it.
I think what I'm looking for is an escape character. In Excel, it's four consecutive quotes that prints a single quotation mark """"
(I'm using the function to generate html, which uses a lot of quotation marks)
Any help appreciated, thanks!

you can use CHAR(34) to print the ascii character 34 (which is a double quote)

How to insert a right single quotation mark?

The tool „Zeichenpalette“ from the keyboard menu shows me how it is called and shows me some codes, but: how to insert often, every day up to 50 times?
Thank for hints,
Karl

“Zeichenpalette” sounds like the German name for Character Palette.
You might consider switching to the German keyboard layout. I'm not familiar with the German localisation of the interface, so I don't know what exactly the International pane looks like. You should turn on the Keyboard Viewer anyway, as it is a valuable tool to have for all layouts.
Instructions, relying on pictures more than text, to make up for my lack of German knowledge:
1. Open System Preferences. It has the icon of three realistic gears in a box. You can also pick the fourth item down from the top of the Apple menu.
2. Click the icon of the blue flag.
3. In this preference pane, click the third tab to the right out of the three at the top.
4. Tick the box that has a grey icon of a keyboard next to it to turn on the Keyboard viewer.
5. If you wish to try the German keyboard layout, which will place German quotes in a more accessible position, scroll down and tick the box with a German flag next to it.

How can i get the correct text from a string like it show in the original source with the quotation marks in the right place ?

The text is in hebrew so the problem is that sometimes the quotation marks not in the right place.
For example i have this text: תווית
על בגד: ''תן לאישה לכבס. זה תפקידה''
This is the source original text you can see the quotations marks and they are not in the right place and all i did is copy paste.
And this is a screenshot of how this text looks like in the website in the original:
You can see now where the quotations marks should be.
Now this is how i'm using the text in my program:
First of all i'm using a webclient to download the page from the website and i'm also encoding it to windows-1255 since it's in hebrew.
using (var webClient = new WebClient())
webClient.Headers.Add("user-agent", "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.0.3705;)");
byte[] myDataBuffer = webClient.DownloadData("http://rotter.net/scoopscache.html");
page = Encoding.GetEncoding("windows-1255").GetString(myDataBuffer);
Then i'm extracting the places i need by reading the html file lines and parsing the right text and it's link.
string loc;
List<string> metas = new List<string>();
List<string> metas1 = new List<string>();
List<string> lockedLinks1 = new List<string>();
string text = "";
string mys = "";
public List<string> LockedThreads(string filename)
lockedThreads = new List<string>();
lockedLinks = new List<string>();
Regex textRegex = new Regex("ToolTip.*?(?=','<)");
string[] fall = File.ReadAllLines(filename);
for (int i = 0; i < fall.Length; i++)
if (fall[i].Contains("http://rotter.net") && fall[i].Contains("locked")||
fall[i].Contains("locked_icon_general") ||
fall[i].Contains("locked_icon_anchor") ||
fall[i].Contains("icon_anchor") ||
fall[i].Contains("locked_icon_fire") ||
fall[i].Contains("locked_icon_sport") ||
fall[i].Contains("locked_icon_camera") ||
fall[i].Contains("locked_icon_movie"))
Regex linkParser = new Regex(@"\b(?:https?://|www\.)\S+\b", RegexOptions.Compiled | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
foreach (Match m in linkParser.Matches(fall[i + 2]))
if (m.Value.Contains("><b"))
loc = m.Value.Replace("\"><b", string.Empty);
lockedLinks.Add(loc);
string txt = fall[i - 1];
string text = textRegex.Match(txt).Value.Replace("ToolTip','", String.Empty);
if (text.Contains("’"))
text = text.Replace("’", string.Empty);
lockedThreads.Add(text);
Already here on the List lockedThreads you can see the quotation marks not in the right place as in the original:
After i'm parsing the text and links and adding them to the Lists in another class i'm doing a comparison using this Lists:
foreach (List<string> l_branch in ListsExtractions.responsers)
TreeNode l_node = treeView1.Nodes.Add(l_branch[l_branch.Count - 1]);
if (ListsExtractions.lockedThreads.Contains(l_node.Text))
l_node.ImageIndex = 0;
l_node.SelectedImageIndex = 0;
for (int l_count = 0; l_count < l_branch.Count - 1; l_count++)
TreeNode l_subnode = l_node.Nodes.Add(l_branch[l_count]);
if (ListsExtractions.lockedThreads.Contains(l_subnode.Text))
l_subnode.ImageIndex = 0;
l_subnode.SelectedImageIndex = 0;
The problem is in the line:
if (ListsExtractions.lockedThreads.Contains(l_node.Text))
When it's getting to the line with the quotation marks it's never equal.
Now there are more quotation marks.
In general the problem when comparing both text if it's having quotation marks it's not the same.
So i have two options:
1. To fix it somehow so the quotation marks will be the same in both variables when comparing and also the same like in the original as they show in the html page.
2. To remove the quotation marks from both variables.
What should i do ? And how ? I was prefer to use the original quotation marks like in the original since they have a meaning in the place they should be. The question is how can i do it ?
This is example of the block from the html file where the text with the quotation marks is:
<TD ALIGN="RIGHT" VALIGN="TOP"> 9418 </TD></TR><TR BGCOLOR="#eeeeee">
<TD ALIGN="RIGHT" VALIGN="TOP">
<body onmousemove="overhere()">

תווית על בגד: ''תן לאישה לכבס. זה תפקידה''
</a></TD>

Ok, it is unclear on what is happening here.
Are you saying that when the webclient gets the data that it is not honoring the quote characters? Or the processing of the data buffer is causing issues?
This is what I see the of your example text which is trying to be parse out:
<a onmouseover="EnterContent('ToolTip','תווית על בגד: ’’תן לאישה לכבס. זה תפקידה’’','כתב: Spook בתאריך: 08.03.15 שעה: 22:11 מחאת טוויטר קמה בעקבות תוויות שוביניסטיות שהדפיסה חברת אופנה באינדונזיה לפיהן תפקיד הכביסה מוטל על האישה. החברה התנצלה אך כנראה רק עשתה רק יותר נזק לע...'); Activate();">";
It appears to me that the escapes `’` does not have matching `“` anywhere within the tooltip. So it appears that the page properly places left quotes in when processing the page, but the raw html has broken text.
Hence a garbage in, garbage out situation.

When downloading text, quotation marks, commas & apostrophes are rendered as gibberish. How can I cure this?

I use IBM Lotus Symphony as my default word processor. When I download materials as .txt, all apostrophes, quotation marks and hyphens are shown as gibberish> How do I get them to download and display normally?

How to execute "netsh wlan connect SSID", but SSID has space and quotation marks?

Dear all:
I have a wifi roruter with SSID test "3"
But when I execute following command netsh wlan connect "test \"3\""
the netsh reply: 未將設定檔 "test " 指派給指定的介面。
Sorry my windows7 is chinese version, but as you can see, netsh detect my SSID as
test, not test "3".
Does everybody know how to use netsh to connect to a SSID, and these SSID has space and quotation mark both?
Regards,
Joseph

Hi Joseph,
Firstly, please modify your SSID name to make sure it do not contain spaces or special characters. SSID name is the router setting. please go there to change SSID name.
In addition, If only one SSID is specified in the profile, then the specified SSID is used to connect, and the ssid parameter is not required. If the profile specifies multiple SSIDs, the ssid parameter is required.
Therefore, I would like to suggest you run command as this syntax:
netsh wlan conncet ssid=Your SSID of the unsecured wireless network name=Your current profile name
To do this, please refer to the section “connect” in the following document:

How can I eliminate automatic "quotation marks" that are appearing at the end of each line?

I keep getting "quotation marks" at the end of every line when I type. How can I eliminate these marks as they are even showing up when I print and I will not have on my wedding programs! Please help (from a desperate bride-to-be)!

It sounds like you are using an East Asian font and unless you are issuing invitations in Chinese, Japanese, or Korean that doesn't sound like a good idea.
