I'm running into an issue where I need to reference a cell with text that includes quotation marks. I'm not sure how to get this accomplished. The formula I'm writing looks something like this (which does not work) but if you guys could give me a hand I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

=IF(A1="12" Piece",TRUE,FALSE)
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
