Just an idea. Some like to use a custom function for the quotes.
A function named "Q" seems to be popular. (another might QQ for Double
quotes)

[A1] = "=IF(Sheet2!G6=" & Q("Maturity") & ",1,2)"

Sometimes this can help if the equation is complicated.

Thanks! That works - is there a place I can see all the character code
numbers?

I put them in explicitly thru chr():


Sub brett()
Dim s As String
s = "=IF(Sheet2!G6=" & Chr(34) & "Maturity" & Chr(34) & ",1,2)"
Cells(1, 1).Formula = s
End Sub

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!
