I want to display a column of numbers with " representing inches. I cannot type this into the cell directly as excel will not recognize them as numbers for my formula that I need. How would I go about this? Thanks for any help in advance!

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
Use CHAR(34) ?

Ahh, just understood what youre trying to do, this probably wont work then.
