I have a line where I want to create a formula in a cell as part of my macro and have developed this line.

Its meant to insert =L&i -J&i into the cell iM, where "i" is a row counter.

Code:
Sheets("ClosedIssues").Cells(i, "M").Formula = "=""L""&i-""J""&i"


But for some reason this isnt working so was hoping someone could point out the error?
 

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
Use an R1C1 formula:

Code:
Worksheets("ClosedIssues").Cells(i, "M").FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-1]-RC[-3]"

EDIT: If you wanted to use an A1 formula,

Code:
Worksheets("ClosedIssues").Cells(i, "M").Formula = "=L" & i & " - J" & i
