[thelist] VBScript: replace double quotes

Inside of a literal string you have to use the escape sequence of two
double quotes to represent a single double quote within a string.

For example:

Replace(strString,"""","'")

This should be simple, but it's got me: how do you use 'Replace' to
replace double quotes? This won't work:

    Replace(strString,""","'")

to replace the double quotes with singles, for instance. I just know I'm
missing something obvious here.

Thanks.
