I prefer to use CHAR(34), like so:

="The date today is "&CHAR(34)&TEXT(TODAY(),"dd-mmm-yyyy")&CHAR(34)

Or you could do it this way:

="The date today is """&TEXT(TODAY(),"dd-mmm-yyyy")&""""

Hope this helps.

How can I insert inverted commas in a formula. For example:

reflects:
The date today is 13-Aug-2008
but how can I achieve a result like:
The date today is "13-Aug-2008"
