Empty cell Identified
What code do I use to test a cell for its content? I want to know if the cell is empty or contains text or values. Is "" produced by a formula the same as Blank or empty?

Empty cell Identified
Nope, a cell that contains a formula that returns "" isn't empty--it has that
formula in it: You can check: With ActiveSheet .Range("a1").Formula = "=""""" 'then try '.range("a1").clearcontents MsgBox IsEmpty(.Range("a1")) & vbLf & _ CBool(.Range("a1").Value = "") & vbLf & _ CBool(Trim(.Range("a1").Value = "")) End With And just to muddy the waters...A cell that had a formula that returned "" and was converted to values isn't empty, either!
