Getting a bit more specific, Re: Embedded apostrophe in command parameters

If there is a single quote in a field/parameter you need to double it up.

lastName = 'O''Gara';

So wherever there should be a single quote, put two single quotes in

ZLIB/ZIP ZIPFILE(test17my17.zip) FILES('This 40'' boxcar.txt') REPLACE(*APPEND)

and got
Matching quote not found in path name.
