I have problems with building a string using '"'. Below is the string:

command = "pgp --encrypt " & fromFile & " --recipient " & """travelers""" & " --output " & toFile

I need to have the variables fromFile and toFile within quotes ('). Thank you.

Solved, here is correct string:

command = "pgp --encrypt """ &fromFile& """ --recipient " & """travelers"""

within quotes (')
Code: 
command = "pgp --encrypt '" & fromFile & "' --recipient 'travelers' --output '" & toFile & "'"

Hope This Helps, PH.
