Hi Michelle

If you try this in the mapbasic window in MiPro the results might be what you want.

Print """m"""

        Subject:        MI MAPBASIC: Putting " inside strings, eg string = Press "Push"


Hi,
 
I have a program that only exports files to NonEarth (it's a bug in their software)  I'm trying to write a MB app that will read in their MIF file, replace with an appropriate projection and then import into Mapinfo.  However the string that defines the projection has "m" within it, ie the inverted comma's need to be part of the string.  I've tried "&"m"&" but that doesn't work. I KNOW theirs a way of doing this, but how? (the rest works fine!)
 
Help appreciated,
 
Thanks,  Michelle, Melbourne, Australia
