Right now I have this:

Strings can also be concatenated at compile time.

#define SCHEMA "test"
#define TABLE  "data"

const char *table = SCHEMA "." TABLE ; // note no + or . or anything
const char *qry =               // include comments in a string
    " SELECT * "                // get all fields
    " FROM " SCHEMA "." TABLE   /* the table */
    " WHERE x = 1 "             /* the filter */ 
                ;
