Hello I am trying to solve this problem about double quotes. I used strtok() to remove the double quotes but it only removes the second ". So the output becomes a = "b but the output I want is a = b.

What I have tried:

strtok(inttbo[ctr].value1, "\"\"");

Hint: Each call to strtok() returns one token (and remembers where it is up to). Read the documentation. Slowly.

You should be calling strtok in a loop.
You're also using double quotes twice in the delimiter parameter.

char* token = strtok(inttbo[ctr].value1, "\"");
while (token != NULL)  
{
   // Your deletion logic goes here.
   token = strtok(NULL, "\"");
}
