I need a regular expression for quoted strings

PJ Arends asked:

I recently downloaded some source files that seem to be exactly what I need for a project of mine. The only problem is that it is written for ANSI builds only, it has no UNICODE support.

I now want to change all string literals from "text text" to _T("text text") by wrapping them in the _T macro to make them unicode compliant.

What would be the regular expression that I could use in visual studio's 'Find and Replace' dialog that would change all the strings for me?

I know next to nothing about regular expressions so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
