In the DESCRIPTION clause of any object, the BODY clause of CREATE METHOD, or the EXPRESSION or GATE_CONDITION clause in TABLE MAPPING, the text is enclosed by single quotes. Any end of line sequence (CRLF) embedded in the text must be given as two circumflex characters (^^); any single quotes embedded in the text must be doubled (given as two single quotes). Embedded double quotes may be used without any special handling.
Only those clauses shown in the statement description as using single quotes should/must be quoted. The character values for all other clauses may be given without any enclosing quotes, but must be enclosed by double quotes (not single) if necessary. It is necessary to double quote values if they contain special characters such as anything other than letters or digits, start with a digit, or are the same as a reserved word in the RSL grammar.
