All,
I am trying to clean up data in a SQLite database, that contains tons of escaped single and double quotes.
Example: \”Text\” has \’junk\’ like this all over the place.
When I do a SELECT to see if the REPLACE function has the correct pattern, the REPLACE is not working:
-- replace escaped single quotes
SELECT id,subject,body,replace(body,"\\'","'") as `clean-body`
FROM article
WHERE id=1118
Thanks for looking
There is no need to escape the backslash. Try this in place of your original call to
replace:
