I also wish it works foy you.

I have sent my testfile to your email id.

How are you testing? Make sure there are no extra characters in the cell you
are testing it.

Where do you have the code? In a module?

There is nothing wrong with your formula.

I entered
"Final Size:" in B5,
36 1/8 X 40 17/32 in B7 (because of Offset(2, 0) in the code),
=FCarea() in A1
and got 1464.191406 as the result.

Sheelo,
I am glad that it working for you. *I wish it was working for me. *Any
thoughts?

I got your file and sent you mine. For somereason all of my other
UDFs work fine, but this one is throwing a value. I have it in a
module with other functions. Your file opens and the UDF works fine.
I ahve no idea why it is no longer working on my file.

Thanks,
Jay
