"" in words

[NewMan]

is it possible to set text of a gadget to something like

"HELLO" instead of HELLO

?
whenever i use those "" again pb recognizes it as end and start of the string. So any other way of doing that?

Howdy, welcome to PB boards.

Try

Code: Select all

stringVar.s = chr(34)+"HELLO"+chr(34)

or

Code: Select all

stringVar.s = chr('"')+"HELLO"+chr('"')

(Thats single ' double " single ' in case it turns out unreadable)

[Kendrel]

MessageRequester("test", Chr(34)+"test"+Chr(34))

...should be working with setgadgettext aswell...!

How about one more answer? (assuming you're using a recent version of PB)

Code: Select all

stringVar.s = #DQUOTE$ + "HELLO" + #DQUOTE$
