How do I, programmatically, determine whether a specific
cell contains a formula or a number?

I have written something like this

....
CellContents = ActiveCell.Formula
MsgBox CellContents
....

This shows the cellcontents in the messagebox, but I
cannot find out how to have the macro to determine whether
or not this is a formula. In this case, I want to delete
the whole row if the cell content is a formula.

Hope someone could help me with this problem.

Stefan,

Use the HasFormula property. This will return True if the cell
contains a formula, or False if the cell does not contain a
formula. E.g.,

If ActiveCell.HasFormula Then
MsgBox "Formula"
Else
MsgBox "Not A Formula"
End If
