Outputting text to a text file with quotes " "

Hello,
I do not know what to search under in google for this.
I want to write to a text file a few lines like "hello" (It won't really say hello, that is an example).

However, in VB the Print #1, "blagggggg" doesn't like Print #1, ""Hello""

How do I complete this?

Thank you,
Scott

This code:
Code:
    Dim iFp As Integer
    iFp = FreeFile
    Open App.Path & "\text.txt" For Output As #iFp
    Print #iFp, "I want to say ""Hello"""
    Close #iFp
produces this output:
Code:
I want to say "Hello"

Interesting. I have a program that saves the user-defined default printer for that program only that outputs the network name to an .ini, and it has the " ". All I'm doing is
Code:
Write gstrMystring

It really all depends on how you are dealing with the string, if you are building the string programatically then you will have to handle the quotes appropriately, if you read in a string that has a quote(s) in it, then you need do nothing.
