.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;

In Execute Anonymous, I'm trying to bulk-process a list of sObjects by passing a list to the DML operation with multiple fields. When I just define the 'Name', it works. When I add Field1 and Field2, I get the error below.




Line: 4, Column: 105
Invalid identifier '’John’'. Apex identifiers must start with an ASCII letter (a-z or A-Z) followed by any number of ASCII letters (a-z or A-Z), digits (0 - 9), '$', '_'.




// Define the list
List<PT_PIPROJ__AccountInsertTestObj__c> acctList = new List<PT_PIPROJ__AccountInsertTestObj__c>();
// Create PT_PIPROJ__AccountInsertTestObj__c sObjects
PT_PIPROJ__AccountInsertTestObj__c a1 = new PT_PIPROJ__AccountInsertTestObj__c(Name='Account3', Field1=’John’, Field2=’Doe’);
PT_PIPROJ__AccountInsertTestObj__c a2 = new PT_PIPROJ__AccountInsertTestObj__c(Name='Account4’, Field1=’Jane’, Field2=’Smith');
// Add accounts to the list
acctList.add(a1);
acctList.add(a2);
// Bulk insert the list
insert acctList;

          You need to use the proper single quote character ('), whereas you have used some other single quote character ().
