What is the ASCII number for the double quote? (")
Also, is there a link to a list anywhere?
Finally, how do you enter it in the C family (esp. C#)
const char DblQuote = @'"'; string s = "hello " + DblQuote + "\" world"; That is in C#

Guffa: You put it in a string: vara + "\"" + varb + "some string". (You could use a character literal also, but that would be pointless as it will be converted to a string before concatenation anyway.)

A:
The ASCII code for the quotation mark is 34.
(Well, strictly speaking it's not a real quotation mark but the inches mark that we commonly use as quotation mark. A real quotation mark is a typographical character that is not available in ASCII.)
There are plenty of ASCII tables on the web. Note that some describe the standard 7-bit ASCII code, while others describe various 8-bit extensions that are super-sets of ASCII.
To put quotation marks in a string, you escape it using a backslash:
string msg = "Let's just call it a \"duck\" and be done with it.";
To put a quotation mark in a character literal, you don't need to escape it:
char quotationMark = '"';
Note: Strings and characters in C# are not ASCII, they are Unicode. As Unicode is a superset of ASCII the codes are still usable though. You would need a Unicode character table to look up some characters, but an ASCII table works fine for the most common characters.

how do you enter it like this? vara + Char34 + varb + "some string";

It's not even the symbol used for inches. That'd be a double prime (U+2033).
