[RESOLVED] Quotes

[JMyersNCAVL]

In a combobox, have a list of 3 options. They are measurements like 2-1/16", 2-5/8", 3"

If my code, I am trying to say,

If combobox.selecteditem = "2-1/16"" Then.....

How can I allow the single " to represent inches? TIA

You escape a literal quote with another quote, e.g.

Dim str = "2-1/16"""

In some situations, it is preferable to use ControlChars.Quote, e.g.

Dim str = $"2-1/16{ControlChars.Quote}"

In this case though, I'd used the escaped literal.
