Default Check for number

If you may have a containing a text value that looks like a number (like
'54--leading apostrophe), you can use the worksheet function:

if application.isnumber(range("a1").value) then

This'll also dump empty cells.

if isnumeric(range("a1").value) then

will show (empty) as numeric.

How do I check whether a certain cell has a number in it in code?

For example, i know Count(A1) gives 1 if cell A1 contains a valid
number instead of text. How do I do that in code?

I did the following but could not work:

If Count(Cell(1,1))0 Then
..
End If
