Specifies the string to be used as the quote to enclose fields in the output of the data extraction facility for an ASCII extraction, when either the TEMP_EXTRACT_QUOTES option or the TEMP_EXTRACT_QUOTES_ALL option is set ON.
This option specifies the string to be used as the quote to enclose fields in the output of the data extraction facility for an ASCII extraction, if the default value is not suitable. TEMP_EXTRACT_QUOTE is used with the TEMP_EXTRACT_QUOTES and TEMP_EXTRACT_QUOTES_ALL options. The quote string specified in the TEMP_EXTRACT_QUOTE option has the same restrictions as the row and column delimiters. The default for this option is the empty string, which Sybase IQ converts to the single quote mark.
The string specified in the TEMP_EXTRACT_QUOTE option must occupy from 1 to a maximum of 4 bytes and must be valid in the collation order you are using, if you are using a multibyte collation order. Be sure to choose a string that does not occur in any of the data output strings themselves.
