I think you could either use the PreserverSingleQuotes function or use
REPLACE and add an extra apostrophe for each apostrophe.

Subject: Escaping apostrophes
Hello,
This must be a basic question, but I found no real answer on the allaire
forums.
I want to allow users to enter apostrophes in text, which I then save to the
database. However, the sql insert will fail as it interprets this
apostrophe within the text as one of the apostrophes surrounding the text.
Example:
INSERT INTO tblUserComments (userid, usercomment)
VALUES (12345, 'I don't know what to think')
This fails on the ' in don't
There must be a better solution than HTMLEditFormat.
Thanks in advance.
