    Hi,

    Can any one please let me know how to Find apostrophe ' in a parameter that the user is specifying to execute a procedure
    I want to check within the Procedure if the User Specifies any character like ' " / within the IN Parameter then I will do some processing. The Position of the character is not evident and even not required.

    Please let me know... Thanks in advance.

    if instr(input_parameter, '''') > 0 then
    there is a single quote somewhere in input_parameter.

    to look for a space, use
    instr(input_parameter, ' ')

    to look for a slash, use
    instr(input_parameter, '/')
