				| 
 |  
				| How do you output quotation marks using Font.Draw and put? 
 For example: how would I output the text put "hello" (with the quotation marks)?

 |  
				| you can put a \ before the quotes and it will work 
 for ex.

 |  
				| nevermind.  I found another way. 
 You can either use your way (which works fine and I appreciate the help) or you can use a slash before the quotation marks you want to be outputted.
 
 example: put "\"hi\""
 
 works the same way with Font.Draw

 |  
				| using put you can do something similar by using 2 ' instead of " 
 
 	  | code: |  	  | put "''Who Goes There?''"  | 
 
 or you can use the ASCII value of "" via chr() function in this case it'd be put chr(34)
 
 
 	  | code: |  	  | put chr(34), "Who Goes There", chr(34) | 
 
 this works also for Font.Draw
 
 enjoy
