My poject at the moment requires me to pass "" to a DOS programe from a variable string.

%L = "message.txt" gives me just message.txt without the qoutes however I really need to pass "message.txt" as the DOS file needs to see

DOSFILE.EXE -Switch "message.txt" all I get is

DOSFILE.EXE -Switch message.txt - which does not work


How do I include "" in a variable string?

Thanking you in advance
