using Double Quotes in Select Query


Go to solution Solved by Psycho,

Recommended Posts

I am using mysql statement in some other software using odbc.

value = odbcconnectSQL("select MATCH(product_group) AGAINST ( ' +shrimp' IN BOOLEAN MODE) as score from company_info WHERE isin='abcd' AND  MATCH(industry, product_group, products, raw_material, business_desc, gisc_ind_2) AGAINST ( '     +shrimp' IN BOOLEAN MODE) ");

Problem is I want to use below keyword instead of +shrimp:

 

"+shrimp  +(export OR import)  "

 

Now the problem is, I am not able to use the Double quotes in this sql statement.

 

How to fix that?

Maybe I am not understanding. Are the double quotes supposed to be part of the text to be compared against or are you intending for them to be delimiters?

 

If the double quotes are meant to be part of the text to be compared against, then you can escape them (using a backslash).

 

value = odbcconnectSQL("select MATCH(product_group)
                            AGAINST ( '\"+shrimp  +(export OR import)  \"' IN BOOLEAN MODE) as score
                        from company_info WHERE isin='abcd'
                         AND  MATCH(industry, product_group, products, raw_material, business_desc, gisc_ind_2)
                             AGAINST ( '\"+shrimp  +(export OR import)  \"' IN BOOLEAN MODE) ");

 

But, if you are wanting to use the double quotes as a delimiter for the string, I'm not understanding why since the single quotes would work just fine.
