Problem during the setting the query data source name in forms 6i

Question

We are now doing assignments in forms 6i actually there is a problem during setting the query data source name in run time.
The problem is
declare
v_query varchar2(200),
begin
v_query :='(select empno,ename,deptno from emp where hiredate =' || control .value1 ||')';
go_block('emp');
set_block_property('emp',query_data_source_name,v_query);
end;
that bolded area is the problem that ia varchar value the single qoutes embedded with that value.how can i embedded single qoutes in that concatenation.
That is now query will run like select empno,ename,deptno from emp where hiredate =control.value
But we need like select empno,ename,deptno from emp where hiredate ='control.value'
