$dbh->quote() will do the escaping for DBI but be careful with dates
as the variable binding does not always behave as expected.
You can esc the single with another single, ala ANSI SQL: ''
This works in Oracle, PG and MySQL for sure.
In perl: $name =~ s/\'/\'\'/g;
$query = qq |insert into x values ('$name')|;
and so on...
Now, can some kind soul tell me how to do an 'insert into x select y;'
where x is a numeric(19,2) and y is a money type???
