quotation mark in formula seems to crash excel!!!

I have a user who is convinced that everytime she enters a quotation mark (")
in her formula, the application crashes and has to restart. Please see below

Below is description of formula that caused Excel to close.

this formula works:
=if(and(f3>=j3,f3<=l3),"Lower",if(and(f3>=m3,f3<=o3),"Middle",if(and(f3>=p3,f3<=r3),"Upper",f3>r3,"Above Upper","?"))))
if try to enter "if(f3<j3,"Below Lower", in front of formula, Excel closes
when hit " key


this formula works when entered left to right:
=if(f3<j3,"Below
Lower",if(and(f3>=j3,f3<=l3),"Lower",if(and(f3>=m3,f3<=o3),"Middle",if(and(f3>=p3,f3<=r3),"Upper",f3>r3,"Above Upper","?")))))
formula will not work if try to edit-something with " key in formula is
causing Excel to close

this is just one example of several that she has. I have researched high and
low and cant find any information on this. Can I please have your thoughts on
what you think is causing excel to shutdown?
