Adding a " to a string

[paul reed]

Hello,

I want to do concatenate two strings together and insert double quotes " in
between them. How do I do that. It doesn't like:

string1 & """ & String2

Thanks

String1 = "ABC"
String2 = "DEF"

String1 & """" & String2 (result is ABC"DEF)

or

String1 & """""" & String2 (result is ABC""DEF)

\\\
x = string1 & """" & string2
///

Instead of a single double quote you need to write 2 double quotes.

Did you tried this:

Dim test1 As String = "test1"
Dim test2 As String = "test2"
Console.WriteLine("The result is: " & test1 & """" & test2)

The result is: test1"test2

Hope that helps
