Is Range ?
I need a simple Boolean function that, given a string as an input, will
return TRUE if the string can be converted directly into a range, otherwise FALSE. For example: A1 Sheet3!F20 [Book1.xls]Sheet1!$B$2 should all return TRUE, but: A1+A2 A1+1 should all return FALSE Thanks in advance -- Gary''s Student |
Is Range ?
Function IsRange(rng As String)
Dim rngTemp As Range On Error Resume Next Set rngTemp = Range(rng) On Error GoTo 0 IsRange = Not rngTemp Is Nothing End Function -- HTH Bob Phillips (remove nothere from email address if mailing direct) "Gary''s Student" wrote in message ...

Thank you Bob. I never considered letting the RANGE() function do the work
for me. -- Gary's Student "Bob Phillips" wrote: Function IsRange(rng As String) Dim rngTemp As Range On Error Resume Next Set rngTemp = Range(rng) On Error GoTo 0 IsRange = Not rngTemp Is Nothing End Function -- HTH Bob Phillips (remove nothere from email address if mailing direct) "Gary''s Student" wrote in message ...

Just another option:
Function IsRange(s As String) As Boolean On Error Resume Next IsRange = Range(s).Address < vbNullString End Function -- HTH. :) Dana DeLouis Windows XP, Office 2003 "Gary''s Student" wrote in message ...
