Escape Character

Hello,

How would I use escape character in this case?
I replaced the two 's inside the quotes with " and it didnt work.
Any suggestions?

UPDATE TB939
SET COMMENT2 =
'of Cap1's and Dr. Head's handling of the case.'
WHERE EID = '0000086807';


Thank you for any input

Double the single quote:
Code:
'of Cap1''s and Dr. Head''s handling of the case.'
Note that what's highlighted are two single quotes, not one double quote.
