Populating a cell with concatenated text...
I want to enter a combination text/cell value in a cell, but vba won't let
me. It expects the end of the statement. Example: Range("A5").Formula = _ "=Summary of "&Q1&" manual comparison." .... where Range("Q1") could be "Current" or "MTD". Any help would be appreciated. Sam |
