I have a variable defined as
define dbs '&1'
Suppose I pass database1 as an argument. Then the statement is interpreted as
define dbs database1
I want to append single quotes around the string, ie I want it to be interpreted as
define dbs 'database1'
How should I do this?
,
Single quotes in strings need to be escaped with another single quote, so you would write (if I understand macro expansion correctly)
'''&1'''
String concatenation is done with the || operator
'''' || '&1' || ''''
