+\membersection{wxDb::EscapeSqlChars}\label{wxdbescapesqlchars}
+
+\func{wxString}{EscapeSqlChars}{\param{const wxString\& }{value}}
+
+This function is used internally by wxWidgets while building SQL statements.
+It has been provided to help users who wish to explicity construct SQL
+statements to be sent to the server. The function takes the value passed and
+returns it with any special characters escaped. Which characters are
+considered special depends on what type of datasource the object is connected
+to. For example, most database servers use a backslash as the escape
+character; if the value passed contains a backlash it will be replaced with a
+double backslash before it is passed to the server. This function can be used
+to avoid passing statements with syntax errors to the server as well as prevent
+SQL injection attacks.

Allows a native SQL command to be executed directly against the datasource. In addition to being able to run any standard SQL command, use of this function allows a user to (potentially) utilize features specific to the datasource they are connected to that may not be available through ODBC. The ODBC driver will pass the specified command directly to the datasource.
+To get column amount and column names or other information about returned columns, pass {\it 'columns'} and {\it 'numcols'} parameters to the function also.
+
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{pSqlStmt}{Pointer to the SQL statement to be executed.}
+\docparam{columns}{On success, this function will set this pointer to point to array of \helpref{wxDbColInf}{wxdbcolinf} objects, holding information about columns returned by the query. You need to call delete[] for the pointer you pass here after you don't use it anymore to prevent memory leak.}

your tables. You first create your table, normally specifying a primary

in the index name (e.g. For table PARTS, you might want to call your index
-PARTS\_IDX1). This will allow you to easily view all
+PARTS\_Index1). This will allow you to easily view all
of the indexes defined for a given table grouped together alphabetically.
The second parameter indicates if the index is unique or not. Uniqueness

In the third parameter, specify how many columns are in your index. This
