Isn't Lauren using a language that uses \ as an escaping character? And then tries to do something with \f? If it works form the mysql comman line, then this can be the case.
I could be lame, but I couldn't reproduce the error. The query worked ok for me -- using 4.0.4-beta-max-nt
- Cs.
i posted this to the newsgroups and got told it was probably a sql parser bug so here goes...
if u try to execute a query such as:
insert into foo (id,textfield) values (54,'\\fred\\')
the query fails
if i add a space after the last \\ it works this is a real pain personally cos we use a lot of that stuff :( any workarounds or fixes or whatnots?
many thanks
lauren
