Add double quotes to a string

Jan 8, 2019 08:29 PM (5158 views)

Hi,

 

How can I add double quotes using formula?

 

"" || :Code || "" || ":" || "" || :Description || "" || "," 

 

I try doing "", but it does not work.

 

Thank you,

Rami

\! is the escape character sequence in JMP.....look in the Scripting Guide for further information on using the escape character sequence. Therefore, you need to specify

\!"

within a quote string to specify an embedded quote
