Mark,

I overlooked the fact that you imported from a textfile,

The problem is now that by importing the larger numbers

where a
thousandseperator (point) was taken up you actually

imported a text, while
the smaller numbers were actually numbers.
By running your macro you did remove the thousans

seperator from the
"text"numbers. For the smaller numbers (actually

numbers you removed the
decimal points (although Excel show a , in your setup it

actually still is a
point). The following routine does what i think you want

to do and in the
same time translates the textnumbers to actual numbers.

Sub RemovePoint()
Dim C As Range
For Each C In Selection
If WorksheetFunction.IsText(C.Value) Then
C.Replace What:=".", Replacement:="", _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows,

MatchCase:=False
C.Value = C.Value * 1
End If
Next
End Sub

Tnx for reply but..
1.354,45 isn't formatted the thousands seperator - as i
wrote data imported from txt file (may be as string

beside
my ver Excel setup thousands separator as space).
I'd like only remove "." after that i can count and

format
data.

Mark,

The problem is that the thousands seperator points you

want to remove just
are not there in Excel. It just shows it in the cell.
Try : Input a large number in A1 and format the cell

such
that Excel show
the thousands seperators.
Now run this simple routine to shwo that they actually

are NOT part of the
number.
Sub RemoveItNot()
A = Cells(1, 1).Value
MsgBox A
End Sub

I have problem with formating data. I work in non-

english
ver. Excel, where decimal separator is "," (no "." as
English).


Currently my each cell in raport cointain data like

this
below:
e.g.
1.512,00
403,22
4.649.019,11
data imorted with txt file.

I'd like remowe "." by simple code:
Selection.Replace What:=".", Replacement:="",_
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows,

MatchCase:=False

Unfortunatelly VBA code remove "," for cell with

403,22
in
result 40322 (sometime work rightly sick!) and "."
12.555,52 in result 12555,55 (right).

Whats wrong in my code?
Is there any way to pass round this error.
Please help me.
Regards
Mark
