replace 1 char. by 2 char. in java

[satyaonline]

Dear Friends,
i want to pass '(apostrophy) character to the database hence,i use following code,
String mystr="let's find out what's going on";
char c='\'';
char c1='\\'+'\'';
mystr=mystr.replace(c,c1);
but above code had one problem since one character can be replaced by only one character,how can i replace in above ' by \' in above string.
Thanking you,
Hiteshonline.(satya)

StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer("let's find out what's going on");
for (int i = 0; i < sb.length(); i++) {
  if (sb.charAt(i) == '\'') {
    sb.insert(i++, '\\');
  }
}
String result = sb.toString();
System.out.println(result);
