Hello Duncan,

Hello everybody,



I've tried the solution with

activecell.value = activecell.value * 1

and it seems to work very good (thanks!!!)



Now, it still leaves me with some questions...

If I modify the code to:



Sub test()
Range("G2").Select
Do
ActiveCell.Value = ActiveCell.Value * 1
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell)
End Sub



....it will block/stop on the first cell that is not "number-like" (f. ex.
F64273/640ZUB/60407400) and put the warning box ["Type mismatch"].

Do you know how to tell VBA to skip such cases and continue until the end of
the column?



Thank you for your input!

Regards,

Mark

A workaround I have used it to put



activecell.value = activecell.value * 1



Post back if this doesnt work (or if it does)

Hello,



I've tried to achieve this with macro recorder, but it writes only the

".select" part...

(I used to select the whole range and than pass through the contextual <!

menu that appears briefly on the left side of the cell and signals the

problem...)



What is the VBA instruction for this?

Many thanks,



Mark



P.S: Range("B3").Select

Selection.NumberFormat = "0.00"

is not functionning in my workbook neither...

Sub test()
Range("G2").Select
Do
If Isnumeric(Trim(ActiveCell.Value)) Then ActiveCell.Value
Trim(ActiveCell.Value) * 1
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell)
End Su
