Default convert to a number

Im using XL 2000

I have a userform which is taking a numerical value from a user in a textbox
named 'Value' and placing it in Worksheets("Names").Cells(newrow, "E") = Value

The value is placed as 'text' and i have to go in and manually convert to a
number.
I would like to automate this programtaically.

Any ideas?

than you
paul.

Cast it.

Worksheets("Names").Cells(newrow, "E").Value = CDbl(Textbox1.Text)

or

Worksheets("Names").Cells(newrow, "E").Value = CLng(Textbox1.Text)

Worksheets("Names").Cells(newrow, "E").NumberFormat = "0.00"
Put the format you want between the quotes.
