Quotes in Macro Formula
Hi
this should be a quick one! im trying to put a formula in a cell ie ActiveCell.Formula = "=CONCATENATE(TEXT(A1,"yyyy/mm/dd"))" However as i have to put double quotes in for the date format excel thinks it is at the end of the line, how can i put in the double quotes without this happening? ActiveCell.Formula = "=CONCATENATE(TEXT(A1," & chr0022 & "yyyy/mm/dd" & chr0022 & "))" or something like this? |
