[RESOLVED] [2005] dim c as char; if c = " then

[ZaNi]

I need to know how to compare a character to " in vb.net. I know this is a simple question, but I can't think of how to ask it to a computer (ie search google or the forums).

Basically I have a character that I grab from a string and I need to check if it is a quote, because I need to allow "," within a quote, but not outside a quote.

Thanks in advance.

I think its a little trivial, but this should do it...

Dim MyChar As Char = """"c ' 1 double quote character
        MessageBox.Show(MyChar) 'shows 1 double quote
        If MyChar = """" Then
            MessageBox.Show("Its it!")
        End If

2 Double quotes inside of the quotes would parse into one....

try this

If Asc(ch) = 34 Then '34 is the ASCII value of '"'
    'Do what ever
End If

Thanks.
