I have problem and didn’t know if there was a simple solution. I would like to use AS to fill the contents of a dynamic text box but I want to include quotations. such as

mytext.text = " The man said “Howdy.”";

but of course the quotes cause problems with that. I know I could call an external text file to do this, and perhaps even use a variable that has a value of a " but didn’t know if there was something obvious I was missing.

Thanks!
