I am inserting text from a file into a table, few of the lines have words like “you’ll” or “don’t”. When I insert these lines as varchar in my table, I get an error saying – near “ll”: syntax error. How do I overcome this?

Thank you all for responses, since I was using sqlite3, there are inbuilt string formating functions available with the library, so I was able to use sqlite3_mprintf with %q instead of %s and it took care of single quotes.
