Using quote marks in a string variable

[atomic.lex]

Hi there,

How could it be possable to write some quote marks in  a string variable?

For example:    

Dim x As String = " some text "some text in quotes" "

Is it possable in ilogic???

It works with & CHR(34) &  Thanks)

You should also be able to double quote it

Dim x As String = "some text " & """ some quoted text """

I'll check though, it's possible in vba

Yes, it´s possable in VBA, but not in iLogic code

You can do it in vb.net and VBA so why not ilogic? I thought ilogic was build on the base language but with an additional user UI

For those referring to this thread, please note that the code needs to be written as & Chr(34) & to work.

Hence the upper case and lower case characters are important. Don't use all upper case characters.

Took me quite a while to work out why it was not working for me until I tried this.

So for example the following should show the quotation marks in the string.

Dim x As String = "Some text plus " & Chr(34) & "some text in quotes" & Chr(34)
MessageBox.Show(x, "Title")
