    Try this:
    Function quotedstring(s)
        s2 = Replace(s, "'", "''")
        s3 = Replace(s2, Chr(34), Chr(34) & Chr(34))
        quotedstring = "'" & s3 & "'"
    End Function
    Code (markup):
    Use this to enter the text into your database and it should reslove the single and double quote issue. Then just reverse the function to pull the data out of the database.

    yes, I saw your PM as well

    I had a long think about it and as I want to keep it as a small business directory (ie: resources for small businesses) I am going to decline the addition of a general real estate category at the moment.

    I know SMEs will want office space - so I've added that under start-up services http://www.smallbusinesspro.co.uk/index.php?c=134

    Best of luck to you!! Personally I think anybody who starts a directory has to be a little on the crazy side myself included. 12 hours a day 7 days a week of editing can fry your brain.

    I just placed a request in your directory under real estate. I like the way you have it structured, looks very nice.

    I added my site to your Regional: North America category, but it should also be broken down to United States: Arizona - I know the directory is new, just trying to help place the site in the best category.

    Site subbmitted was prescottcity(dot)com - good luck with the site.

    stranger: Nice site design. In my opinion, there are way to many web directories out there. Try to think of something to really distinguish yours. Submitted my dictionary site. Thanks

    leeds: I don't know if my dictionary site (link in sig.) would fit in your "Reference" category. It's not really a bussiness, it's a hobby, but it could be useful to a small business ie: translations, schools, education, travel etc. If so, maybe you want to add a "Dictionaries" category? Let me know and I'll add it.

    By the way, I like your logo "Small business pro", it adds a seriousness and for me it makes the site look more trustworthy.

    strangerrr, I submitted my dictionary site 6 days ago and I don't see it yet :( I submitted to dictionaries, but in your guidelines it says any site with any content other than english is relegated to the corresponding "world" page. (its a spanish-englsih dict.) However when I click on your Español link asp returns null.

    There's always room for another good directory.

    Free submission and all the categories (I checked quite a few.) are being cached by Google. What more can we ask for?
