[amibroker] Re: MIKE - SIMPLE WRITELINE JAVASCRIPT FOR AMIBROKER USE QUESTION

["bistrader" <bistrader@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mike, It looks like using single quotes works.
ts.Write ( line3a + '"' + line3b + '" ' + line3c );

In any case, would appreciate feedback on using function, var, writeline, write and overall approach to creating a text file as I plan to expand on this for some AmiBroker work.  Thanks.
