Good Day

I have a small question .....
I am attempting to write from a table to a txt file.
I have some places I want to write the "" .
Example
ms15 = ("if Blah ~= "" then")
How to do that?

My Thank U's in advance.

what are you trying to do sam? are you trying to check if a var isnt nil? or are you trying to check if a variable doesnt equal literal string ""? if your trying to check against the literal string "" then you must escape the ".

not sure which your wanting but heres an example of both bro.

if blah ~= nil then
 do something here
end

if blah ~= ams = "\"\""
  do something here
end

I am taking that

ms15 = ("if Blah ~= "" then")

later I am doing this with many items....

Table.Insert(InfoTab, 15, ms15)


TextFile.WriteFromTable("C:\\PassWord.txt", InfoTab, false)

I need to write the quotes but I can't figure out how.

Any Ideas???

well in order to output a " you need to escape it. let me play around for a sec and i may have a solution for you.

here you go sam, the dialog message is just so i could test it.

ms15 = ("if Blah ~= \"\" then");
InfoTab = {}
Table.Insert(InfoTab, 15, ms15)
Dialog.Message("Notice", InfoTab[15], MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);

I'm messin around with the password apps..
I think I may come up with something pretty good.

I'm kinda figuring out the encryption scripts..
I'm sure it's nothing that you guys couldn't do in 5 minutes..
Because I spend all night, get no sleep, what I do is worth wayyyy more..

Thank you,

Yeah,,,, right.....

You just wait..
One of these days,
I'm going to put something together really good.

Thanks for all the help,

I need to write the quotes but I can't figure out how.

whenever quotes are needed (dll calls, sqlite and mysql among others) i always use a Enclose function

function EncloseText(strText)
    return "\""..strText.."\""
end

--Example Use:
Dialog.Message("Notice", EncloseText("This text will have quotes"), MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
