Alternate String Delimiters
("). Since this is the usual string delimiter, the embeded quote needs to be
handled correctly. Here are some different ways to display the string: Database
title is "Fish Sticks".
Dim session as New NotesSession
Dim db as NotesDatabase
Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
' 1) The escaped quote. Can be hard to see where
' the embedded quotes are and if there are enough of them.
Print "Database title is """ & db.Title & """."
' 2) The alternate delimiter. Allows embedded quotes
' and is easier to read with lees chance for error.
Print |Database title is "| & db.Title & |".|
' or, my favorite. . .
Print {Database title is "} & db.Title & {".}
' I like using braces as a string delimiter because the
' start ({) and end (}) characters are different. This, unlike
' the quote (") or pipe (|), makes it easy to see whrere
' the literal begins and ends. And embedded quotes
' are a snap to insert correctly.
