Text1.Text = ""sss""
Use 2 quotes right next to each other

Actually Andir, I may be wrong but,
Text1.Text = """sss"""
That one MAY be correct, and yours may test it out sunil and let us know please.

Whoops  No..I was wrong on that, Algar is right, 3 double quotes...I was thinking on the lines of String concatination and having an example where you need to do this:
BookTitle = "Talking Chickens"
thisString = "The title of the book is "" & BookTitle & ""."
Print thisString
The title of the book is "Talking Chickens".
Technically I'm doing the same thing as Algar stated though if you look at it right.

An easier way is how I show below (just simpler and easier to read afterwards, all work) :
You can use the Chr function that returns the " character or use a constant. Just to make simpler as I said 
| Code: | Private Sub Form_Load()
MsgBox "Testing the quotes : " & Chr$(34) & "test" & Chr$(34)
Const Quote As String = """" 'or Chr$(34)
MsgBox "Testing the quotes : " & Quote & "test" & Quote
End Sub |
They both return the same
