Need help with quoting and the CPP

[Brett Bergquist]

Is there any way to expand an argument to a macro and at the same time
surround it with quotes (making is a quoted string).  For example if
STRING is defined as:

#define STRING test string

Is there any way to define a macro "QUOTE" so that:

char* s = QUOTE(STRING);

while produce:

char *s = "test string";

The reason that I need this is that the *%$# ESQL preprocessor that I am
using needs table names unquoted, by my C applications need them quoted.

I'm using SunOS 4.1.1's CPP.

Thanks in advance.
