Hey… trying to make something in Flash and i need a var String to = a quotation mark… but i don’t know how to do it…

eg:

var whatEver:String = “”"

obviously that doesn’t work… coz it just changes all the following coding to text…

I tried searching Google and couldn’t find anyone with the same problem…

Any help?

Thanx… Jesse.
