Greetings: We are moving our application from 7.4.14 to 8.3.1. One giant step for mankind... Anyay, I have several triggers that update notes fields in certain tables and loading the trigger function is giving me the following error: psql:bill/bill_preupd_func.plsql:83: WARNING: nonstandard use of escape in a string literal LINE 1: ...OR REPLACE FUNCTION bill_preupd_func () RETURNS TRIGGER AS ' ^ HINT: Use the escape string syntax for escapes, e.g., E'\r\n'. The problem is a line like 'UPDATE bill SET notes = 'blah, blah, yea\nmore stuff'; How to I escape the newline embeded in the string? I've tried the advice from HINT, but have been unable to get it to work. Thanks...
