Default Data with starting with - causes Type Mismatch


I wrote a little program that I use to sort alot of data until a bug
finally caught up with me today.

Range("b1").Select 'selects cell b1
For i = 1 To intRowCount
If ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2) = Null Then
ActiveCell.Value = mapcell
End If

If InStr((ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Value), batchnumber) Then
ActiveCell.Value = mapcell
End If
Next I

Problem is the data put into one of the ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2) cells
happends to be "- test" so it displays as #NAME and crashes my macro.

Any sugestions would be helpfull
