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)

yes...

How about one more answer? (assuming you're using a recent version of PB)
Code: Select all
stringVar.s = #DQUOTE$ + "HELLO" + #DQUOTE$
