Add quotations as part of a string?*RESOLVED*

**datwig** · Sep 18th, 2004, 01:14 AM

I want my string/message box to have quotations in it. How can this be done?

Instead of putting in the quotation use CHR(34) for double quotes or CHR(39) for single quotes.

ex: To print the name O'Riely in TextBox1 use the following:

TextBox1.Text = "O" & CHR(39) & "Riely"

The simplest and most readable/understandable way to do it is

VB Code:

Const QUOTE As String = """"
MsgBox "René Descartes said " & QUOTE & "I think, therefore I am" & QUOTE

thanks!
one more quick question though, how do I open websites from my app. I mean an .html file on my computer, not a website on the internet.
