A string that contains speech marks

[daryl4356]

Hi all,
Firstly sorry if this is very simple but I am a complete novice.

i am tring to write an app which creates HTML pages.
To do this my strings will need to contain speech marks for the hyperlinks. how do i type these so they apppear as hyperlinks when i create the text files to convert to html pages? VS2005 thows errors if i just type " "

I know this is probably not the best and effective way to do this but i will approach that in a different post, your helo on typing speech marks into strings will be a great help though.

Thanks
Daryl

To include double quotes in a literal string you need to escape them with another double quote:

Dim myString As String = "He said ""Hello"" to me."

myString will contain: He said "Hello" to me.
