Do constant values in Interbase SQL statements have to be in single or
double quotes if they do not contain space characters ? For SQL statements
with other database systems is it a general rule that constant values must
be in single or double quotes, or is it database system dependent issue ?
Can one ever go wrong placing constant values in single or double quotes in
SQL ?
