如何在命令行 to.vbs 脚本上转义双引号？

Question

I have a script. I want to send a line with double quotes inside it to that script, like this: Cscript myScript.vbs "Testing "this line""

But the double quotes inside the line make it so the line never gets to the script properly. I've tried escaping with a carat (^) or using double double-quotes ("Testing ""this line""") with different results, but none is the result I want (the script getting Testing "this line").

To justify why I need to do this, I'm trying to send an SQL line to a script that will edit my Orca table, and there needs to be double quotes in one of the values to do what I want to do with Orca.

Answer 1

You could try this:

Here is the vb script x.vbs:

Wscript.Echo Unescape(Wscript.Arguments.Item(0))

Here is the output for running it:

D:\>cscript x.vbs "Testing %22this line%22"
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.8

Testing "this line"

If you replace all " with %22 you will be able to use this method to pass the double quotes in.

Answer 2

This cannot be done. I have tried everything and the only way to make this work is to designate some string of characters to represent " in your VBS and replace the command line arguments instance of the designated string with ". I picked something that would not likely be a problem::. was the string i used to represent ".

In my code, I added the following:

strArgu0 = Wscript.Arguments(0)
strOldSTR = Replace(strArgu0,":!:","""")

Answer 3

Examples I've seen use a backslash before a quote to escape it. A common example of this is passing logging options to a setup program (Windows installer package)

Setup.exe /v"/l*v \"c:\My Log Files\test.log\" /qn"
