SQLITE escape comment “--”










0















I'm using DB Browser for SQLite, doing multiple inserts. However I need to escape -- but it just keeps giving me errors.



INSERT INTO table(name) VALUES ("S6--sfI6H6E"),("ASGts7sa6jw") -- Error at S6



I have tried the following:



INSERT INTO table(name) VALUES ("S6--sfI6H6E"),("ASGts7sa6jw") ESCAPE '' - Error at ESCAPE



INSERT INTO table(name) VALUES ("S6--sfI6H6E"),("ASGts7sa6jw") - Inserts Literal String



INSERT INTO table(name) VALUES ("S6'-'-sfI6H6E"),("ASGts7sa6jw") - Inserts Literal String



INSERT INTO table(name) VALUES ("S6----sfI6H6E"),("ASGts7sa6jw") - Error at S6



How can I escape --?

    String constants should be enclosed in single quotes, not double quotes: dbfiddle.uk/…
