Default Converting String numbers into real numbers


Hi,

I have a formula in VBA that searches through a table for corresponding
results to the conditions I specified and sort the results into another
table. My problem is that the data I use, which includes monetary
values, seems to have converted them into string numbers (which include
de $ sign as part of the characters and not only into a simple visual
effect). It's a problem when I want to do mathematic operations with
those monetary values. Is there a way to convert them into real numbers
in my VBA code just before doing my maths with them? I tried to
pre-format the cells before their extraction but it seems it isnt
enough to really convert them.

Thx!

Werner
