Using Replace to remove part of a string
Hi,
I have a number of cells that end with ;Color=12342. For example -
Alan;Color=12342
Jane;Color=12342
Clare;Color=12342
Ian;Color=12342
I want to replace ";Color=12342" with "". So that the 4 cells contain
-
Alan
Jane
Clare
Ian
The following code doesn't work (replaces nothing) -
range.Replace(";Color=12342", "", Excel.XlLookAt.xlPart,
Excel.XlSearchOrder.xlByRows, false, false, false, true);
And this line of code inserts a space at the end of each cell, which I
don't want -
range.Replace(";Color=12342", " ", Excel.XlLookAt.xlPart,
Excel.XlSearchOrder.xlByRows, false, false, false, true);
Why does the first line of code above not work?
Thanks,
Barry.
