reference to a cell within a string
I have written the following:
If [b2] = 5 Then [b3] = "blp(""GE Equity"",""Last Price"")" Else [b3] = "" giving me the wanted result: blp("GE Equity","Last Price") My question is, lets say I would like to reference cell [b4] = IBM, in order to replace GE in this string. to give me the result: blp("IBM Equity","Last Price") Thank you, Susan |

reference to a cell within a string
Yikes! Just noticed a typo.
should be: "blp(""" & [b4] & " Equity"",""Last Price"")" "K Dales" wrote: If [b2] = 5 Then [b3] = "blp(""" & "[b4] & " Equity"",""Last Price"")" "susan hayes" wrote: I have written the following: If [b2] = 5 Then [b3] = "blp(""GE Equity"",""Last Price"")" Else [b3] = "" giving me the wanted result: blp("GE Equity","Last Price") My question is, lets say I would like to reference cell [b4] = IBM, in order to replace GE in this string. to give me the result: blp("IBM Equity","Last Price") Thank you, Susan |

Have a look at
