Glenn's suggestion worked great. I had only tried doubling the quotes not different types of quotes. Thank youvery much Glenn.

Within the same project i have a few more questions If this post is unsuitable here i can start a new thread. the problems are as follows:

1) @crlf macro doesnt seem to add a new line to a textbox.text field. Related to kix forms. The result of my current attempts is as follows:

 Code:
$Textbox.text=$Textbox.text+@CRLF+$message+@CRLF+$Form.OpenFileDialog.Filename

results in boxes instead of the carriage return and the line feed chars


2) how can i read a simple text file into a textbox.text field. Preferably appended to whatever i have there now.


3) How can i package external exe dll and other files including kix scripts to one neat exe application. I dont want users to have any chance of poking their noses in the sensitive data file and key for the compressor program.

4) a way to edit / concatenate strings. i want to be able to trim the last three characters of the string and add new ones. I can successfully add but i didnt see any String manipulation so far in Kix.

Thanks
