I have a label in which I need to place a statement that is a quote. How do I accomplish this without getting and error because of double quotations on each end of the statement?

The following kicks back and error - ""Test statement language.""

I needed another close parenthesis at the end of mine to get it to work.

If you build the string in the label using Concatenate() and Char(34) it will embed the quotes.

Concatenate(Char(34),"Test statement language",Char(34))

Hi @Phineas ,

Have you tried this ? Concatenate("This is a quote: '", "My quote.'")
