Hi
I have the following:
test = '''any word'''
which creates a char array containing the word with quotes
now i want to find the position of the quotes:
out = findstr(test,' '' ' )
but this doesn't work and returns an empty array. Can someone please explain how to do this and also why i cant use the escape sequence for single quotes i used to create the word in the first place.
Im using R2008b
Thanks
Matt

strfind(test,'''')
With ' '' ' you are looking for < blank>'<blank>
