special characters

I'm trying to input the quote mark(") in a line of text. I tried chr(034) and that isn't working. I would like a list of all special characters if available. I had it at one point and lost it.

 

I would like it to read:

FERRULE,TRI,S4,1 1/2" X 1 1/8" LG.

 

i tried:

FERRULE,TRI,S4,1 1/2" & chr(034 & " X 1 1/8" & chr(034) & " LG."

Hi philshields05,

 

This should work:

 

stext = "FERRULE,TRI,S4,1 1/2" & Chr(34) & " X 1 1/8" & Chr(34) & " LG."

MessageBox.Show(stext, "iLogic")

 

And here's a couple links with the ASCII character lists:

http://ascii.cl/

 

http://www.theasciicode.com.ar/

 

Edit : that link had some of the extended chars wrong, this one seems is correct:

http://www.ascii-code.com/

 

 

 

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

@Anonymous It does work..

Can you be more specific about why thats not working for you?

Where are you trying to insert that specifically?

Are you doing this in an ilogic rule?

 

Note the capitol "C" also

Yeah, I guess I better give some more context. I'm using iLogic to replace content center components. For some reason ANY content family with " in the familiname won't replace. In the past I've used '' instead of " in the family name but I don't have the luxury of changing these family names. Here is my code so far and I've attached the error I receive
