awk and how to use <'> in awk

Hi,
Hope can help me. Actually, i do not know how to use single quote<'> in awk. So i use <"> insteand of <'> and the output is ok.
If anyone know how to use single quote<'> in awk, pls kindly inform me. Thanks in advanced.
Output:
Code:
insert into mytable(id, field1, field2)
values ('1', 'myvarchar', 'my varchar"||chr(10)
||"that has carriage returns, and is making "||chr(10)
||"my script die');

insert into mytable(id, field1, field2)
values ('2', 'myvarchar2', 'my varchar"||chr(10)
||"that has carriage returns, and is making "||chr(10)
||"my script die. This one is even trickier because "||chr(10)
||"it contains a quote that I didn't expect."||chr(10)
||"');

code:

Code:
awk '
{
if (index($0,"values")!=0)
	n=1;
if (index($0,");")!=0)
	n=3
if(n==1)
	{
		print $0"\"||chr(10)"
		n=2
	}
else if(n==2)
	print "||\""$0"\"||chr(10)"
else if (n==3)
	{
		print "||\""$0
		n=0
	}
else
	print $0
}' filename

NAME
ratfor - rational Fortran dialect SYNOPSIS
ratfor [ option ... ] [ filename ... ] DESCRIPTION
Ratfor converts a rational dialect of Fortran into ordinary irrational Fortran. Ratfor provides control flow constructs essentially iden- tical to those in C: statement grouping: { statement; statement; statement } decision-making: if (condition) statement [ else statement ] switch (integer value) { case integer: statement ... [ default: ] statement } loops: while (condition) statement for (expression; condition; expression) statement do limits statement repeat statement [ until (condition) ] break [n] next [n] and some syntactic sugar to make programs easier to read and write: free form input: multiple statements/line; automatic continuation comments: # this is a comment translation of relationals: >, >=, etc., become .GT., .GE., etc. return (expression) returns expression to caller from function define: define name replacement include: include filename The option -h causes quoted strings to be turned into 27H constructs. -C copies comments to the output, and attempts to format it neatly. Normally, continuation lines are marked with a & in column 1; the option -6x makes the continuation character x and places it in column 6. Ratfor is best used with f77(1). SEE ALSO
