How to use CHR(34) a a constant

[tom.hogan]

Is it possible to use CHR(34) (a singe quote mark) as a constant? I have tried:

Private Const Units as string = CHR(34)
Private Const Units as string = "
Private Const Units as string = """

None of those worked! FYI I am using CHR(34) as a representation for inches. I would like to make it so if the user prefered metric the only line he would have to change would be the constant line.

Thanx in advance,

Tom

You can't use a function to define a constant.

Private Const Units as String = """"

Shg,

Wow, awesome - I would have thought """" would give you "" but it gives just one " like I wanted.

Thanks,

Tom

A literal quote always has an even number of quotation marks. Each pair of interior marks adds a single qoute to the string.
