alternative to "" when using in Macros

Brass Contributor

Hi,

 

I have this formula, which contains multiple "" when looking to see if text is in the cell : 

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Sling",D6)),"Sling/Lab",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Dress",D6)),"Dressing",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Downtime",D6)),"Downtime",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("jigs",D6)),"Jigs",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("NC",C6)),"NCR",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("M2",C6)),"Change",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("M3",C6)),"Change","Earning")))))))

 

however when I use it in a macro, the formula has to be in quotation marks and so it creates an error in the formula, is there any way to still have text in the formula?

""Sling""

ah perfect, I tried the double "" in the formula in excel but have realised it only works in the formula in the VBA
