Quotation Mark and Send()

[aslani]

$var1 = "REV """ & $rev & """"
$var2 = "REV " & Chr(34) & $rev & Chr(34)
$var3 = 'REV "' & $rev & '"'

Send($var1)
Send($var2)
Send($var3)

They all come out like this;

REV "A1

without the end quotation mark. Not really sure why. Any advice?

EDIT:

By the way, when I view it using MsgBox(), the end quotation is there.

I don't know where are you sending these but this basic example works fine - I can see everything fine in Notepad.

Run("notepad.exe")
WinActivate("Untitled - Notepad")
$rev = "A"
$var1 = "REV """ & $rev & """"
$var2 = "REV " & Chr(34) & $rev & Chr(34)
$var3 = 'REV "' & $rev & '"'
Send($var1)
Sleep(500)
Send($var2)
Sleep(500)
Send($var3)

I'm sorry but I found the culprit, it's my StringReg.

StringRegExp($rev, ".{1,60}\b\.?", 3)

Ok start over.

The StringReg is to insure that the characters per line won't exceed 60 characters, but as you can see, it strips the last quotation because of the "\b" and to get the quotation, I have to use "\B", but not both of them at the same time (or can I?).

Any idea how to fix my StringReg pattern?
