LOL!

Joel, you may know that our DOCSQL utitlity, which you are using, does
use STRQMQRY - it is just so generic that you have to build up the whole
string.

There are very nice ways to get quotes in the right places by using a
custom *QMQRY - it's pretty easy - and one of the tricks is to use a
substitution variable, similar to Michael's suggestion - but for a
single quote - then you use that variable &QT, say, everywhere and it
just gets handled. There have been other posts here about that - here's
where I learned that trick.

Regards
Vern
