Custom Formatting

M

Matt McAleer

In a cell, I want to include a double quote as my custom
formatting.

For example, I want to enter the following in the
formatted cell:
12.43

I want the displayed results to look like:
12.43"

I've looked a few places and cannot find any info. Any
help is appreciated.

Thanks
Matt

Matt,

When you type in the custom number format, use \" to indicate the
double quote mark.

Try:

<Format> <Cells> <Number> tab, and click on "Custom".

Click on a format that you like in the right window,
Then, in the "Type" window, add a backslash followed with the double quotes
(\").
