Hi
How do i put a special character like " in a string?

Find the ascii char and use chr(charNo)

for example return is chr(13) and line feed is chr(10) (i think). I don't
know what " is off the top of my head but it should be east enough to find
out :)

<-- there it is"

Newbie,

With a double "

"""" is one "

This is the only exception for the rest just the character.

I hope this helps,

You double up the quote, so the string

foo "bar"

is written as

"foo ""bar"""

Any other special characters you need?

Encode each double quote character with two consecutive double quote
characters:

\\\
MsgBox("He said: ""Hello World!""")
///

instr(string1,"""")
