Not really.
What I was trying to access is the error indicators like "The number in this cell if formatted as text...." Thanks *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com *** Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it! |

Take a look at ErrorCheckingOptions in VBA's help.
From there, you can click on "see also" and go to "Error Object" and see code like this: Option Explicit Sub testme01() Dim myCell As Range Set myCell = ActiveSheet.Range("B3") If myCell.Errors.Item(xlNumberAsText).Value = True Then MsgBox "Might be an error" Else MsgBox "nope, not even a warning" End If End Sub Trevor Fernandes wrote: Not really.

Just note that these were added in xl2002 and would not be available in any
earlier version (if you are writing code to distribute). -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy Dave Peterson wrote in message ... Take a look at ErrorCheckingOptions in VBA's help.

In the KB article Q291047 it is stated:
Method 1: Use the Error Button If the cells in which numbers are displayed as text contain an error indicator in the upper-left corner, follow these steps: Click the cell that contains the error indicator. Click the error button next to the cell, and then click Convert to Number on the shortcut menu How can I do the same thing through VBA?
