questions regarding quotes, html tags, and text variables

[mettodog]

first question: i want to say Print, &quot;<A href=&quot;

http://www.google.com&quot;Google

Search</a>
i always get errors, or vb inserts ; into various places because of the &quot;&quot; around the link. how do i get that text to print AND include the quotes as i have them written by the Print command.

#2
will vb give errors because of the html tags?

#3
how can i use variables within the print command?
ex. i want to write <a href=&quot;variableurl&quot;VariableTitle</a>
but i think that when i do that, it wont insert the variable itself it will just print the variable name as text.

any comments/suggestions/answers are greatly appreciated.

1. To get around the double quotes problem, use the Chr() keyword:

Instead of:
Print #1, &quot;<A href=&quot;

http://www.google.com&quot;>Google

Search</a>&quot;

use:
Print #1, &quot;<A href=&quot; & Chr(34) & &quot;

http://www.google.com&quot;;

Chr(34) & &quot;>Google Search</a>&quot;

2. No - you are just printing out a text string.

3. Use:

Dim sURL As String
Dim sLinkTitle As String

sURL = &quot;

http://www.google.com&quot;

sLinkTitle = &quot;Google Search&quot;
Open &quot;C:\aa\aa.txt&quot; For Append As #1
Print #1, &quot;<A href=&quot; & Chr(34) & sURL & Chr(34) & &quot;>&quot; & sLinkTitle & &quot;</a>&quot;
Close #1
