Hey guys,
I used the following code to run normal double quotes inside my SQL queries. Hopefully this will save someone else a headache or two-
<?php
/**
* Query Function
* Allows quoted queries to be sent to SQL
*/
function query($query, $conn)
{
odbc_do($conn, 'SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF');
return odbc_do($conn, $query);
}
?>
add a note

To clear up: the SQL standard requires strings to be inside single quotes: 'string'. It simply does not accept double quotes for this purpose.
Furthermore, in PHP, you can have a single quote inside double quotes: "select a from b where c = 'string'" without the need to escape.

i have use this function so many times. it works well for my requirements. ok well done...
<?php
$sqlstr="SELECT bill_no FROM SCROL";
$queryresult=odbc_do($conn,$sqlstr);
odbc_fetch_row($queryresult,$bills);
// if we want to access the records
// then we have to write the following code
echo $bills[0];
?>
the out put for this will:
1
which is actullay first record of resultset.
