I have cells of "built up" text strings like this:
="xy="&TEXT(O12,"0.0000")&","&TEXT(P12,"0.0000" )
which, when displayed, look like this:
xy=2524950.0000,341717.0000
The problem is, I want the cells to look like this:
CadInputQueue.SendKeyin "xy=2524950.0000,341717.0000"
In Excel, we would write:
="""xy="&TEXT(O12,"0.0000")&","&TEXT(P12,"0.0000") &""""
That is, a double-quote as character in a string is represented by a
pair of double-quotes in a formula.
Does that help you at all?
Yes. Someone in the .misc group gave me that answer as well, and it
works perfectly.
Thanks for your help.

Paul, I perhaps should have suggested that a cross-post to both groups
would have been preferable to the multi-post (identical postings to more
than one group) that you used. With a cross-post, everyone can see the
responses from either ng.
And yes, cross-posting is acceptable practice when not over-used.
