Default Quotation Marks as Text

Quotation marks as text

I am using Excels IF Function to generate text that will be used in another
application. The text will be savedd to Tab delimited file and then imported
into the new application. That new application requires text strings be
enclosed in quotation marks. The problem is I cant get Excels IF formula
to accept Quotation marks within Quotation marks or stated another way I
cant get Quotation Marks as part of my text string. Is there a way to get
around this?

Thanks
Kelly
