I have a series of numbers (SSN) that I need to turn into text, so I want a
macro that will put an apostrophe and a zero at the beginning of the numbers. I know that there are other ways to change a number to text (formatting, find/replace to add the apostrophe) but for what we are doing, manually editing to add the apostrophe and zero is the only thing that works. SO.. to my question. When I make the macro to do this, of course it simply adds the apostrophe and zero and repeats the number from the first cell over and over again. How can I make it select each cell's new data, move to the beginning of the number and add the apostrophe? Here is my macro that is obviously not working. ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "'012365564" ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select I see that the problem is that it is picking up the literal from the first line, but how can I make the macro edit the new numbers in each line and not repeat this text over and over. |
