String manipulation

[Lee]

Hi All,

I need to make a string look like this. I am calling a program and need to
send args to it.

"c:\program files\program dir\prog.exe" /B "c:\config files\file1.txt "

The quotes need to be passed exactly as they are in that string or it will
not work. I need the quotes or I end up getting things trucated.

Thanks

Lee

Try

@"""c:\progr am files\program dir\prog.exe"" /B ""c:\config
files\file1.txt """

Re: String manipulation

This is what I get that that:

"\"C:\\prog ram files\\program dir\\prog.exe\" /B \"C:\\config
files\\files1.t xt\""

That is right out of the watch window

Re: String manipulation

That's still the program representation. If you print that string out, say
to the console, it should be as you specified
