i figured that it was likely SQL.

you might actually be better off with a custom processor for this.
one perl solution uses "ideal" query objects built up part-by-part,
then you ask it to express itself ("stringify", in a way) in the
appropriate dialect.

for this particular situation, a quick program that can recognize,
e.g., "QUOTE(...)" and do the right thing shouldn't be too hard.
