HI all, above is a string with each character representing a date in a
month. I would like to be able to repalce each character with a number. For
e.g. in the first string the 1st < would be number 11, the 1st L would be
number 14 etc.They would also be in separate cells. Any ideas. Thaks again in
anticipation. Regards
