; Ascii 34 is "
define DOUBLE_QUOTE_C character*1 = characters (DOUBLE_QUOTE_N)		;
Converts number to "

define STRING character*10 = DOUBLE_QUOTE + "THIS SHOULD BE IN QUOTES" +
DOUBLE_QUOTE

		Anybody....

		I need to output a character string from a QTP request and
that character
		string must contain an HTML command which itself contains
double quotes.
		How can I escape the double quotes within the character
string to ensure
		that I get the double quotes appearing in the output string?

		I know that it is not absolutely essential for HTML to use
the quotes, but
		it is now a question we need to know the answer to.  

		Can anyone help?
