ODBC SELECT - no value escape ?

That's a rather ... complicated one. It's as much intended as it is a bug.

Due to the very nature of ODBC - you can use pretty much any database platform without CodeIgniter having a way of knowing which one it is. And different databases have different escape characters and rules, so it's really up to you to do such kind of escaping.
