VC++ - Including " in a text string without ending the string

[JSadleir]

Hi All I am trying to include the inch symbol (ie " the same as a double quotation mark) in a function that requires a text string input between double quotation marks along the lines of: ? SysAllocStringByteLen("Some text with the inch symbol" and then end",44) How do I mark the " inch symbol so that it is not mistaken as the end of the text string Regards Jeremy
