I'm guessing that the statement really was: UPDATE tu02t00 SET tu02pfusua = 'D\'AGOSTINO' (notice the backslash). That would have worked in PostgreSQL 9.0 with default configuration (and given you a warning), but won't work with PostgreSQL 9.2. If that is your problem, you can set standard_confirming_strings = off to restore the old behaviour. It would be much better, though, to adapt your program to use standard conforming strings, like this: UPDATE tu02t00 SET tu02pfusua = 'D''AGOSTINO' Yours, Laurenz Albe -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
