Replace Quotes with Escaped Quotes in String

[Brahmanathaswami]

Are single quotes and double quotes equivalent in Livecode?

that would be new, i don't think soS

Single quotes do not work

*command*escapeQuotes*
*

*put*fld"input"intojai
*replace*'" ' with ' \" ' injai
*put*jai intofld"target"

*end* escapeQuotes

gets us a script error
