Hi,

A great thanks to you...I don't understand why I didn't think about that
mistake. Experience is coming slow!

Thanks again!

I think you copied the "numbers" range, not the empty cell. So you added each item to itself. You should have added zero (from the
copied empty cell)

| | Hi,
| |
| | I extract data from an application (SAP) and all my number are formatted as
| | text. They only way I found so far to convert them is to click on the yellow
| | diamond and then chose convert to number from the menu. I try the macro
| | recorder to do the same and nothing is appearing beside my selection. I tried
| | copy/paste format from a cell in which I enter "1" and it do not convert the
| | text. I also tried to change the format of the cell manually without success.
| | The error message from the yellow diamond is (translate from french, so it
| | could be different) " The number in this cell is formatted as text or is
| | precede by an apostrophe".
| |
| | I am still new with programming ( mainly use the macro recorder so far to
| | learn from it ) and I cannot figure out how to do the trick.
| |
| | Thanks!
