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

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
