Currency format in visual basic text box
 

Hi,

This is probably a very silly questiong but i can't find how to solve it.

I have made a form that you enter in data and it puts it into cells on a
spreadsheet, some of it is a numerical amount. These amounts are then
referred to in other formulas. Despite the cells being in the 'accounting'
format, they still appear to be just in text, and not even me reformatting
the cell will chage them to any kind of number.

Is there a way of formatting the textbox, in the visual basic form, to be a
number? or some piece of code to enter it as a number? The code i am
currently using is as follows:

Sheets("in").Range("i7").Value = net

'net' being the name of the text box that the amount is entered into.

I hope someone could please help.
Thanks

Sheets("in").Range("i7").Value = Format(net.Text,"$#,##0.00")
