<pre>4 double quotes is nonsense. In any literal string in formula expressions, a
double quote is escaped by doubling it. The 4 quotes in the example are a
literal string containing *one* quote, i.e. the enclosing double quotes and in
the middle the escaped double quote.
For the example given here it should be
=SUBSTITUTE(A1, """foo""", "bar")</pre>
