Search as I may through the documentation, I have seen no
examples of how to use C languange variables as arguments of the
SQL 'insert' command in libpq.  All examples show explicit
values being inserted.  I want to have a program get user input
and plsce it into variables where the values can be verified
before being inserted.  How do I do this? i.e. can I just say,

	'insert into <table> values ( var1, var2 var3 ...)'

Paul

libpq doesn't do that ... I think ecpg might be what you are
looking for.
