MySQL query to search record with apostrophe?

Let us first create a table −

mysql> create table DemoTable -> ( -> Name varchar(100) -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (2.23 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert command −

mysql> insert into DemoTable values('John'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values('Sam\''s'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.28 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values('David\''s'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.36 sec)

Display all records from the table using select statement −

mysql> select *from DemoTable;

Output

This will produce the following output −

+----------+ | Name | +----------+ | John | | Sam\'s | | David\'s | +----------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Following is the query to search record with apostrophe in MySQL −

mysql> select *from DemoTable WHERE Name = 'Sam\''s';
