Thanks for fixing the 's.

Found another part of my feed which supplies the ' as ' instead of '

The & and the # are being removed as part of the line in feedsql.php
$string= strtr($string,"'/-:&\"?_+#","` ");

To correct I have added a line just before this
$string= str_replace("'","`",$string);

For the other problem I had I did the following as you suggested
1) Increased Select4 size in the database to 500
2) Checked to see if I was updating select4 at line 52 to the following
if ( isset ( $item["menu_$i"] ) ) {
if ($i==4)
select_value["Select$i"]=prepare_for_sql(trim($item["menu_$i"]));
else
$select_value["Select$i"]=prepare_for_sql_url(ucfirst($item["menu_$i"]));
}

Thanks
