Double Quotes around SQL field

[Bax Ter]

I am trying to output the field Text with double quotes around the value.

I am currently trying to use CHAR_LENGTH({fn CONCAT('"',Text,'"')}) I have also tried {fn CONCAT('"',Text,'"')},  I have tried ('"',+ Text+, '"') and all of these are showing invalid with the red squiggly line not even alllowing me to attempt to compile...Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

There's an example::

USER>Set tStrDoubleQuotes = "String with double quotes"

USER>Write """tStrDoubleQuotes"""

Hope it helps.

I believe CONCAT only accepts two arguments.

 

Instead of using the CONCAT function, try using the SQL concatenation operator ||:

'"'||Text||'"'

“ The quote character does not take an escape prefix; to specify a literal quote character, double it "". “

Try (' "” Text “" ')

 

Thank you,
