Simple Q About FileWrite

[g00gle 0]

Currently trying to write a script that will generate a proper batch file and then run it.

Have been playing around with the GUI options available.

Anyways, long story short.. how do I send a quote (") in FileWrite or FileWriteLine ?

FileWrite( "file.bat", "dir ")
    FileWrite( "file.bat", $var)
    FileWrite( "file.bat",GUICtrlRead($file))
    FileWrite( "file.bat", "\*.mkv")
    FileWrite( "file.bat", $var)
    FileWriteLine( "file.bat", "/b > file.txt")

where $var is where I need a "

hi g00gle,

Welcome to the forums

Any of these will do fine:

$test = @ScriptDir & "\quotes.txt"
FileWriteLine($test, '"')
FileWriteLine($test, """")
FileWriteLine($test, Chr(34))

Hope this helps
