Jerry is correct: Single quotes vs. double quotes make absolutely no
difference in the code that you have posted, since there are no variable
references in or adjacent to the string values. Without loss of generality,
they also make no difference when enclosing file paths, unless the paths
contain the delimiter character (in which case the string value would end
prematurely, which might contribute to the fact that a file could not be
found).

This is not the World Wide Web, an application of the Internet, but Usenet,
a part of the Network News network (a growing part of which is part of the
Internet). So you may – SHOULD – as well post the *relevant* *parts* of
your working code here.

So, without evidence to the contrary, one must assume that you have not
understood what you are doing in the first place, that you are not willing
to understand the problems that this has caused you in the foreseeable
future, and that you are not willing to feed back the insights you have
gained from other code to the community that tried to help you for free.
That puts into serious doubt whether you are worth getting further, rather
time-consuming, answers like the ones I give to you. Think about that.
And skip the attribution novels, please.
