How to put a quotation mark in a Text String in Visual Basic Programing ?

Question

hi

I'm facing a trouble and that is I can not put the quotation mark ( " ")

in a Text string in Vb for example imagine we have a Text box object in our form and we want to make that form to do this action:

=================

exampletext = text1.text

maintext = " " " + exampletext + " " "

msgbox(maintext)

==================

this is easy but how can I make my program to alert a message like this ( with quotation mark)

"Hello World"

(note that the quotation mark must be included without needing writing extra quotation marks like example above)

Is there a solution?

thnks you

Answer 1

Sorry I can't be of complete help but I do remember there is commands such as /n (For a new line) and /t for tabs I believe when using Console.Write and WriteLine commands. Maybe you could look into this??

Answer 2

This will not work...

=================

exampletext = text1.text

maintext = " " " + exampletext + " " "....the +'s should be &

msgbox(maintext)

==================

Cut and paste this into the code pane on a blank form Form.Load event

It's for  VB6 it uses the message box (MsgBox). Use the InputBox for a users inut:

Dim MyVar

MyVar = MsgBox("Hello World!", 65, "MsgBox Example")  ' MyVar contains either 1 or 2,

                                                      ' depending on which button is

                                                      ' clicked.

VB2008 and Express and again Cut and paste this into the code pane on a blank form Form.Load event:

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

        Dim msg As String

        Dim title As String

        Dim style As MsgBoxStyle

        Dim response As MsgBoxResult

        msg = "Do you want to continue?"   ' Define message.

        style = MsgBoxStyle.DefaultButton2 Or _

           MsgBoxStyle.Critical Or MsgBoxStyle.YesNo

        title = "MsgBox Demonstration"   ' Define title.

        ' Display message.

        response = MsgBox(msg, style, title)

        If response = MsgBoxResult.Yes Then   ' User chose Yes.

            ' Perform some action.

        Else

            ' Perform some other action.

        End If

    End Sub

End Class

put double quotes next to each .  Like this:

TextBox1.Text = "You said, ""Hello World!"" "
