Is it possible to force a \\ into a cell? I am looking to copy and paste into a cell. When I paste I want \\ to be forced into the cell along with my text.

example - If i past ( test) into a cell I want the cell to show as ( \\test)

This is not a hyperlink, it's actually command line information.

thanks,
 
Say you paste your test data in col A, in col B, put:

="//"&A1

copy it down and then you can paste special/values to have a new col with //test
