Inability to add quotation mark around a variable by concatenation in VBA
Hi,
I am outputting some data for another programmer to parse. He has requested that I add quotation marks around each variable, but when I attempt to do it VBA will have none of it, and wants me to insert 2 quotation marks or none! Here's my code: Dim bCount As Byte For bBandNo = 1 To 9 If arrbBandValue(bBandNo) 0 Then bCount = bCount + 1 'Last one needs special treatment (no comma after and quotes at the end If bCount = bBandCount Then sBandValues = sBandValues & arrbBandValue(bBandNo) & ";" & bBandNo Exit For End If sBandValues = sBandValues & arrbBandValue(bBandNo) & ";" & bBandNo & "," End If Next bBandNo psBandValues = sBandValues I tried two approaches the first being to add them at the end which would be easiest. I just amended the last line: psBandValues = """ & sBandValues & """ However this destroys my variable returning instead of "MyVariableString" as I intend, instead it returns The second to do it 'at source' which yielded the same result. Maybe I am missing something (probably) but should it be so hard to simply add quotation marks around a variable??? Any help much appreciated, M. |
