execute immediate 'insert into ...'

I am trying to insert records into a table through execute immediate. The number datatypes go in with no problem. It is the varchar2 and date formats that are giving me a problem.


examples:

desc tables test
col1 number,
col2 varchar2(30)
col3 date

execute immediate 'insert into test values ('|| 2 ||', '|| joe ||', '|| 07-JUN-05 ||')';


I have tried different ways to format the varchar2 and date datatype, but keeps giving me an error.


How do I format these datatypes within an execute immediate?

thanks.
