How do I add " to the right of a number when formatting?
I am trying to format a column of numbers example.
0.152 0.025 I have figured out how to remove the first zero now I need to add a single quotation mark the symbol for inches. I do not know how on the custom formatting I just get an error. |

What does your format look like that removes the leading 0?
This custom format will add the " but does not remove the leading 0: General"''";-General"''" Note that the quotes are a double quote then 2 single quotes then another double quote.

Single quote, surrounded by double quotes, at the end of your custom format.
