Hi all,
Any differences if we use single quotes or double quotes for text string ?
For example in variable assignment or in select query condition ?
Is there any rule, lets say Best Practice rule for this ?
Thanks,
V
There is no difference in x++ code.
HI VoltesDev,
Supplement to mingzhou's reply, please refer to this:

Hi Blue,
I think it is different. I'm sorry, but I had to ask is the document you're sharing has a updated one that more comply with F&O current version ?
My finding is for text string use for variable / field assignment and X++ select query it is better to use single quotes, so it will not break BP Rule for Label Id.
Hi VoltesDev,
Yes, there are specific situations that will make a difference.
For example, constants, or expressions in the query range use single quotes.
You can find some from here：

Hi Voltes,
Sorry, the link in the first reply is earlier, you can see this: docs.microsoft.com/.../xpp-cs-comparison
Search "Single" in Doc, you will find a lot.
