how to copy contents of a cell and remove any quotes " "
Hi,
Does anyone know how to copy the contents of a cell to another and remove any "quotes" that may be present? I am able to replace brackets using the function below - however this just throws up an error when trying to remove " : =SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,")",""),"(","") cheers, Jon |

Did you consider the find and replace command on the edit menu?

Hi Jon
As regards a formula approach, then you just need to be a bit careful (as you've found) as Excel considers the " to end the string. So you need additional " characters: =SUBSTITUTE(A1,"""","") Hope this helps!
