A semicolon should be fine inside quotes.  The problem is more likely to be
a duplicate record in the table or such, though that particular case doesn't
seem to print the exact error, unfortunately.  To the original poster: add
a statement to filldata.cpp to print the database error as is done in other
places in the code to see what is going on.
