This patch against 0.98.7 lib/tables.tcl will allow PGAccess to create new
records containing apostrophes in text fields without altering the appearance
of the entry in the GUI interface (by copying the fldval to fldvalfixed).
This will alleviate the need for users to create a record and then go back to
edit apostrophes into the text they entered.

Therein lies the problem... :)
Since it appears you have the requirement of supporting old python
versions, attached is just the pgdb.py part of the patch (with a fix for
DateTime handling). It has the same functionality but certainly won't be
quite as fast. Given the absence of _PyString_Join in python1.5, it's a
pain to get the C variants working for all versions. The pgdb.py patch
does leaves the hooks in, should someone wish to do the optimization at a
later point.
