I'd expect that, as I believe just about every SQL engine out
there uses ANSI-standard single-quotes instead of double-quotes. Some
might *permit* double-quoted strings, but it certainly doesn't adhere
to standards, and double-quotes are used in some databases to quote
names of databases/tables/columns.

What SQL engine is this for?
