    Unhappy Quotes

    This is probably a easily answerable question, but I am still new at this...when you are adding text such as txtGo.text = " hello= " , its recognized as that being the content. But what if i actually need to put quote marks withing the quotations? such as .text = " hello = "hi" " ?

    is there a &vbkey I can use or something like that?
    Thanx in advance

    Use Chr$(34).

    Code:
    Text1.Text = Chr$(34) & "Hello" & Chr$(34)

    Use double quotes:
    Code:
    Dim str as String
str = "Hello=""Hi"""

    Unhappy Cant program :(

    I seem to be doing something wrong here. This is the result that I want to occur:

    <html>
    <head>
    <title> txtInputA </title>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="cboInput1" text="cboInput2" link="cboInput3" alink="cboInput4" vlink="cboInput5">


    Here is what I have...

    Code:
    rtxtHtml.Text = "<html>" & VbCrLf 
"<title>" & VbCrLf 
rtxtTitle.Text & VbCrLf 
"</title>" & VbCrLf 
"</head>" & VbCrLf 
"<body bgcolor=" & Chr$(34)& cboBg.Container
    right

    ...Im FAR from sure if thats even close to being correct...but the example i put is how I want it to show up. Thanks a million if anyone can help me on this

    The VB compiler/interpreter takes newline characters in your code as end-of-statements, unless you use the underscore character at the end of a line.

    You need to either use the underscore ( _ ) or put your statements all on one line each, like this (both cases shown):

    Code:
    rtxtHtml.Text = "<html>" & VbCrLf & _
"<title>" & VbCrLf & _
rtxtTitle.Text & VbCrLf & _
"</title>" & VbCrLf & _
"</head>" & VbCrLf & _
"<body bgcolor=" & Chr$(34)& cboBg.Container
    OR

    Code:
    rtxtHtml.Text = "<html>" & VbCrLf & "<title>" & VbCrLf & txtTitle.Text & VbCrLf & "</title>" & VbCrLf & "</head>" & VbCrLf & "<body bgcolor=" & Chr$(34)& cboBg.Container
    Sorry about that second line of code being so long, it's probably messed up all the text in this thread now. Never mind
