Filewrite with quotes


Recommended Posts

I have tried everything i can think of, and ive looked thru the help but i dont really know where to look.

Anyways, im trying to write the following to a text file

someone "[variable goes here]"

But I cant get the quotes to write!

Im using FileWriteLine

FileWriteLine (@ScriptDir&"\out.txt", "someone ""&$var&""" )

;the error is here  ---------------------------^  ------^
;because there is an unclosed quote

How can I get FileWriteLine to write out the quote?

FileWriteLine (@ScriptDir&"\out.txt", "someone """ & $var & """" )

-or -

FileWriteLine (@ScriptDir&"\out.txt", 'someone "' & $var & '"' )

FileWriteLine (@ScriptDir&"\out.txt", "someone """ & $var & """" )

-or -

FileWriteLine (@ScriptDir&"\out.txt", 'someone "' & $var & '"' )

That gave me the error "Unterminated String"

Edit: The first one err'd, the second one worked perfectly. Thanks!
