    Try something like this:
    Dim s As String

    S = "objShell.SendKeys" & CHR$(34) & "{TAB}" & CHR$(34)
    Print #1, S

    ...does this work?

    Re: Creating Vbs in VB

    If you need to enclose quotes in the string then just double up on them like in my example.

    Here is your next fix.

    print #1, "objShell.SendKeys""{Tab}"""
