Echo to file with batch programing

I want to learn echo to file, with batch programing.

my batch :

@echo off
echo Hello World > c:\text.txt

Text.txt result :

Hello World

It is Seccessfully

But If my batch file (Added '"'):

 @echo off
 echo Hello '"' World > c:\text.txt

Result :

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

C:\Users>echo Hello '"' World > c:\text.txt
Hello '"' World > c:\text.txt

Why text.txt not created?

you should escape the single double quote:

echo Hello '^"' World>test.txt

otherwise the echo parser is waiting for the closing double quote and the > redirection remains escaped by quote.
