Encode each double quote by two consecutive double quotation mark
characters:

\\\
.... = "The keywords """ & Keyword & """ does not exist. Please try again."
///

I suggest to use the '&' operator for concatenating strings instead of using
'+'.
 
Nope that does not work

thrdReply.SMSMessage = "The keyword "" & Keyword.toUpper & "" does not
exist. Please try again."
Gives me

The Keyword & Keyword.toUpper & does not exist. Please try again.

I can only repeat what I said:

\\\
.... = "The keywords """ & Keyword & """ does not exist. Please try again."
///

Notice that there are actually three (!) consecutive double quotation
characters. The last one is used to terminate the first string literal
before the '&' operator.
 
Gotcha. Font on my screen is so small I missed the extra " in there :s
Thanks,
