Hello all

I have a question. When I create a table I cannot use any escape to put a
' character in the default field definition.

CREATE TABLE Test (name varchar(128) default 'Something with '' into');

Fails. I've tried also other alternatives :
default "Something with ' into"
default "Something with '' into"
default 'Something with \' into'
default 'Something with \27 into'
default 'Something with \0x27 into'

Everything fails.

How can I set a default with a string containing a ' ?

Thank you all.

Bye
