Have you tried the Replace?

String s= "Script Id="Test" ";
s = s.Replace(""", "\"");

backslash is used as an escape character.
Note the 3 quotation marks in the second argument of the Replace method

No problem JMash,

To insert a double quotation inside a string you need to use two double double quotation marks next to each other. So you would replace all instances of &quot with "". Try this:

s = s.Replace("&quot", """")

This little rule about quote marks applies to apostrophe's as well where they are used as string delimiters (for example in SQL) and is an important thing to be aware of.

Give this a try and let me know if it helps,
