try using " where you want your quotes to be: <property value=""X"" />
you should also be able to use the single quite double quote trick: <property value='"X"' /> I hope that is what you are looking for.

How does one 'escape' a quote character into XML. For example: <property name="foo" value="X" /> If now instead of X, I want to put "X" in there, (i.e. with the double quotes). How do I do that? The following doesn't seem to work. <properaty value="\"X\"" /> Ron -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
