Goss,

The first routine seems to work. This is what I tried:

'Evaluate the cell
'If numeric, do nothing,
'Otherwise return only left 2 characters to the cell
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'Get_Rows is UDF

Dim c As Range
Dim wsData As Object

With wsData ' unnecessary -- not used
For Each c In Range("B1:B" & Get_Rows) '
If IsNumeric(c) Then
Else
c = Left(c, 2)
End If
Next c
End With
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Function Get_Rows() As Integer
Get_Rows = 5
End Function

Or you could write:
If Not IsNumeric(C) Then C = Left(C, 2)

I receive no errors at run-time
But I also don't receive any results
