Max...this worked fantastic! Thanks much.

No prob. Glad that did it for you

Can you give me some idea how this forces it to a number?

Not exactly sure how, but that's one of the techniques to force text nums to
real nums. It "triggers" Excel to do it. You could also do a "multiply by 1"
operation instead of an "add zero" calc to achieve the same effect.
