AddFieldDelimiters

Résumé

Adds field delimiters to a field name to allow for use in SQL expressions.

The field delimiters used in an SQL expression differ depending on the format of the queried data. For instance, file geodatabases and shapefiles use double quotation marks (" "), personal geodatabases use square brackets ([ ]), and enterprise geodatabases don't use field delimiters. The function can take away the guess work in ensuring that the field delimiters used with your SQL expression are the correct ones.
