XPath for attributes with single and double quotes

From: girish <girish.1ah25x@----.---------------.--->

In my XML document, some node attributes data contains both single quot
and double quote characters, such as 

<input msg="Hello "World", What's up"/>.

The double quotes are in form of escape sequence in the XML document. 
am not able to locate such elements using an XPath expression. I trie
the following: 

//*[@msg="Hello "World", What's up"] 
Failes with string error at double quote before World 

//*[@msg='Hello "World", What's up'] 
Failes with string error at single quote after What 

//*[@msg="Hello "World", What's up"] 
I used the escpase sequence for double quote in my xpath which you ar
seeing as acutal double quote in this post. 
No Error but does not return any node. 

//*[@msg="Hello "World", What's up"] 
I used the escpase sequence for both double quotes and single quotes i
my xpath which you are seeing as acutal double quote and single quotesi
this post 
No Error but does not return any node 

I tried both MSXML 3.0 and MSXML 4. 
Any Ideas?
