double quote in a calculation

[Tombstone0]

Just wondering if there's anyway switch character or any other way to get double quotes into a text calculation.

Thanks

Try using four """" quotes.

... and i think it will not work ....

In the programming languages (and i really think in FM also) it works as follows:

• to insert in the variable Var the text Robert you MUST assign:

  Var := "Robert"

• to insert in the variable Var the text "Robert" you MUST assign:

  Var := char(34) & "Robert" & char(34) - where char(34) represents the " sign

Then, to accomplish the job, assign to a global text field (we call it g_Text) the " sign and use it in your calculation:

YourField=WhatYouNeed & g_Text & "Robert" & g_Text.

I really think this is the proper way.

Just confirming, 4 quotes works.
