>How do I check for the number of times a double quote occurs in a string using occurs()? I hate to step through the entire string char by char checking for asc(lcstring,i)=34. Assuming that a character string has another character string enclosed within double quotes, how do I count the number of times the double quotes exist in the string? Is there an easier way?
