Really possibly stupid question

It has been many years since I have sat down and coded in quickbasic, so bear with me.
I am writing a simple program to then compile to exe that will take various inputs and then one off generate a Windows unattended answer file.
The answer file has variables that are wrapped in double quotes such as in this section:
;SetupMgrTag
[Data]
AutoPartition=1
MsDosInitiated="0"
UnattendedInstall="Yes"
How do I get the quotes to print with the PRINT command? This is what I assumed I could do (Note that I am appending to a file with each line):
PRINT #1, " MsDosInitiated="0""
However when I change lines, the editor/compiler changes the line to:
PRINT #1, " MsDosInitiated="; 0; ""
Thanks in advance for the help!
Jason.

Code: Select all
PRINT #1, "MsDosInitiated="+CHR$(34)+"0"+CHR$(34)
34 is the ASCII code for "
Happy coding.
