Can I export rows of text to a .sas file WITHOUT quotation marks?

Hi,

I'm wrestling with making a tool to correct often used phrases in SAS code, and then creating a new SAS file with the corrections (or, ideally, overwriting the original). I can read the SAS file, paste it as a cell per row going down, and correct the phrases.

My problem is exporting the rows to a .sas file without adding quotations. This seems to be happening as I'm saving to a new file (so a search and replace beforehand, won't solve the problem).

I've used https://www.extendoffice.com/documen...a-to-text.html as a guide.

My export sub is:

Sub Export()

    Dim wb As Workbook
    Dim saveFile As String
    Dim WorkRng As Range
    Dim Exp As Integer
    
    On Error Resume Next
    Set WorkRng = Application.Selection
    Set wb = Application.Workbooks.Add
    WorkRng.Copy
    wb.Worksheets(1).Paste
    saveFile = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(fileFilter:="SAS files (*.sas), *.sas")
    wb.SaveAs Filename:=saveFile, FileFormat:=xlText, CreateBackup:=False
    wb.Close
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    
End Sub

Which works fine for creating SAS file, but adds the quotation marks like so

"/*libname _input  ""&srvpath.\&user_envir.\source\test"";

which should just be (there are quotation marks in the SAS code)

/*libname _input  "&srvpath.\&user_envir.\source\test";

I hope some of you can help me!
Cheers
