("TEXT") inside of a TextBox.

Posted 25 January 2013 - 04:20 PM

Hello, I'm trying to display some commands inside of a TextBox to other people. I'm using this textbox code:

TextBox1.Text = "("TEXT GOES HERE")"


It's giving me a "End of statement expected" error. Can anyone help me with this? It's probably just an easy fix.

Hi,

You need to escape the two double quotes inside the string, by prefixing them with double quotes:

TextBox1.Text = "(""TEXT GOES HERE"")"
