MsgBox """" & "SCN " & scnrate & """"

But I am having problems. the tripple quotes on the right side work
but it wont let me do it on the left side. What is the procedure
here?

Thanks

scnrate = InputBox("Scanning Rate (milliseconds) Range = 25 - 100",
"Set Scanning Rate", 25)
MsgBox """ & "SCN " & scnrate & """"
