You did it right if the ref cell does have maturity in it. Maybe leading or
trailing space?
=IF(TRIM(F1)="maturity",1,2)

Very simple question, but I can't figure it out:

I want to make a formula in a cell through VBA, but I want the formula
to have a word in it (which needs to be in quotes). That is, I want
the formula to read:

=IF(Sheet2!G6="Maturity",1,2)

How can I get the Maturity part surrounded by quotes?

Thanks!
