Gosh! Wouldn't it just be easier to delete the file and then rewriting to
it rather than going through all those repeats and stuff?

I figured out a workaround, clunky as it may be.
-----------
set gTheWriteText = removeQuotes(gTheWriteText)
if the last item of gTheWriteText = " 3110" then
nothing
else
put SPACE after gTheWriteText
end if
on removeQuotes dataString
repeat with a = 1 to the number of chars in dataString
if char a of dataString = QUOTE then delete char a of dataString
end repeat
.....
