I have a table 'cdrequest' it has columns 'albumfill' and 'releasedatefill' among 
others....
when i do the following query with myphpadmin

update cdrequest set albumfill = "hot shots II", releasedatefill = 20010708 where 
requstID = 2;

i get:
You have an error in your SQL syntax near '\"hot shots II\", releasedatefill = 
20010708 where requstID = 2'  at line 1
I can't see any reason for the error.....

part 2:
when I flip to properties for the cdrequest just to make sure i'm spelling the columns 
corectly and cut and  paste the
exact same query on that page IT WORKS....
Why would it work on that page but not the other. both are supposed to be places where 
you can enter a  normal sql
query..

It also doesn't work in my PHP script which is where I really want it to work.

What am I missing??
thanx
Julian

btw. I've tried all different combinations of double quotes and single quotes so it's 
not that
