That is when you could use the custom formats as I suggested.

hi mr. phillips.

i found in excels' vba help the next tip:

valor = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(numero,
serv, 79, false)
frmResultado.txt1.Value = FormatCurrency(valor, 2)

it works but i've had some troubles when the cell's format
doesn't match with the FormatXXXXX function. (XXXXX =
Currency, Number,TimeDate, Percent)

any suggestion?

tia.
