I'm trying to create a string that is something like this
string myStr = "CREATE TABLE myTable
(
id text,
name text
)";
But I get an error: http://i.stack.imgur.com/o6MJK.png
What is going on here?

Make a verbatim string by prepending an at sign (@
). Normal string literals can't span multiple lines.
string myStr = @"CREATE TABLE myTable
(
id text,
name text
)";
Note that within a verbatim string (introduced with a @
) the backslash (\
) is no more interpreted as an escape character. This is practical for Regular expressions and file paths
string verbatimString = @"C:\Data\MyFile.txt";
string standardString = "C:\\Data\\MyFile.txt";
The double quote must be doubled to be escaped now
string verbatimString = @"This is a double quote ("")";
string standardString = "This is a double quote (\")";
string myStr = @"CREATE TABLE myTable
(
id text,
name text
)";
Use the @ symbol infront of the string.
