I want a field to look like this:<br><br>&quot;foobar&quot;<br><br>I want the double-quotes.&nbsp;&nbsp;BizOB uses double-quotes as literal delimiters.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've tried escaping the double-quote to no avail.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>Anyone have a solution for this?<br><br>Thanx!<br><br>--LordLobo
 
why not just insert a cell then type in &quot;footbar&quot; without and equals sign in front of it?&nbsp;&nbsp;Of is this an object?<br><br>Nick
 
No, this is of an object:<br><br>&quot;&lt;foobar&gt;&quot;
 
Hmm what about setting up a character constant with the value &quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;then use concatenate to stick nameof(&lt;foobar&gt;) together along these lines?<br><br><br>double_quote_constant & nameof(&lt;foobar&gt;) & double_quote_constant <br><br>whadyta reckon?
 
That did it.&nbsp;&nbsp;W00t.&nbsp;&nbsp;The key was NAMING the quote variable (i had tried that on a variation).<br><br>--LL
