Hey all. I just tried something I never thought would be a problem, but I never needed to this before. I'm trying to create a find/replace script which looks for a text string of ". Obviously FileMaker wants text strings in double quotes (""), so it would need it to look like """. Unfortunately, FileMaker thinks there is an open text string. Anyone know a way around this?

Hi there, and welcome to the Forums.

The search term you are looking for is: "

The backslash is FileMaker's control character for searching for characters which otherwise have a special meaning withing FileMaker, including the quotation mark.
