QUOTE

Syntax

    QUOTE

Description

Constant; represents the quotation mark character and refers to the literal quotation mark character in a string, because the quotation mark character itself is used by Lingo scripts to delimit strings.

Example

This statement inserts quotation mark characters in a string:

    put "Can you spell" && QUOTE & "Macromedia" & QUOTE & "?"

The result is a set of quotation marks around the word Macromedia:

    Can you spell "Macromedia"?
