String to number
Importing from database to Excel numbers are converted to strings (ex 676 921,5) I've tried to convert this to number by using "Paste Special" - Multiply. Did not work. I then tried "Replace(" ","") and neither did this work. I do think that the "space" in the number is not the normal "space" (Unicode (Hex) 0020) but the "No-Breake Space" (Unicode (Hex) 00A0). So if anybody could give me a hint of how to solve this problem (VBA by preference) I would be verry happy. F2 works of cource but editing several columns with 500 rows is not a job I'm looking forward to.
