Hi,

I've saved data into the db by doing a replace() on single quote.

Right now on data display on a datagrid, it shows double single quote.

How do I make changes during run time of datagrid so that the double single quote will be replaced as single quote?

Pls advise.

Thanks
 
Your best bet, especially to prevent SQL injection attacks, instead, would be to use Parameterized Queries.
Here's a 2 part tutorial on that subject:

Are you saying the datagrid is converting a single quote from the
database two 2 single quotes?

If the database stored a double quote then your code to save is the
culprit. Are you by any chance using parameterize queries for the insert?
If you are then there is no need to do the replace as parameters are smart
enough to handle single quotes
