    adding quotations to multiple cells

    i need to add quotations at the beginning and end of a string of characters for multiple cells. is there a way i can do it without having to go into each cell and add quotes. each cell has a different number of characters, for example:

    A1 = My name is _____
    A2 = Hello, how are you doing today?
    A3 = The weather is great!
    ...

    i need it to look like this: but i have 2000 cells to work on

    A1 = "My name is _____"
    A2 = "Hello, how are you doing today?"
    A3 = "The weather is great!"
    ...
