Some of the quotes are "fancy quotes" that are different for opening and closing quotes. It is likely that you copied the formula from a web site or from a Word or PowerPoint document, which have a nasty habit of converting straight quotes into "fancy" opening and closing quotes.

This formula works fine in my tests:

="Please find a report for  "&TEXT(B4, "dd mmmm, yyyy ")&" | "&TEXT(B4, "dddd")

enter image description here

Edit: You can insert a line break with char(10) and concatenate more text and formulas that look up values, for example:

="Please find a report for  "&TEXT(B4, "dd mmmm, yyyy ")&" | "&TEXT(B4, "dddd")
&CHAR(10)&"some more stuff"
&CHAR(10)&"color: "&VLOOKUP(A1,$D$4:$E$10,2,FALSE)

Excel cannot use a Tab character in a cell. You will need to add spaces for that.

I used Alt+Enter in the formula to break the formula up into several rows and make it easier to read.
