Question

I have a file that contains SQL statements that is delimited by semicolons, is there a way to make sure that strings in my file that have semicolons inside values to be inserted won’t be affected by String.Split?

Example:

Insert Into items(Description) Values('Anti Surge T; LBC Slow Blow 6.3 x 32mm 7A / 250V');
Insert Into items(Description) Values('SSA 215');

I want to the whole 'Anti Surge T; LBC Slow Blow 6.3 x 32mm 7A / 250V' value to be inserted into my table row. But since I using <sql_statemet>.Split(new char { ';' }) the sql statement is not complete since there’s a semicolon inside Anti Surge T; LBC...

Edit: Everybody has the same
sentiments. Thanks guys, it worked. I
think I should just make a better
delimiter for this too. XD

I dont think so something like that is available

but you can try “RegularExpression” not sure but may resolve your issue.
