G'Day,

Got a spreadsheet that imports data and unfortunately the date data
comes in the format of "dd.mm.yyyy". So I use a replace method to
change dots to slashes to get "dd/mm/yyyy". When I do this with the
replace in the edit menu it works fine. When I record the macro that
makes it all happen and place it in my VBA code it changes the date
format around to "m/dd/yyyy". So I tried recording the macro again
with the replace dialog box options and selecting the proper date
format... once again the menu option works fine but the actual code
doesn't (see below)...

Range("B469:D471").Select
Application.ReplaceFormat.NumberFormat = "d/mm/yyyy;@"
myRange.Replace What:=".", Replacement:="/", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False,
_
ReplaceFormat:=True

The Application.ReplaceFormat... line returns the following error:

Run-time error '-2147417848 (80010108)':
Method 'NumberFormat' of object 'CellFormat' failed

Anyone come across this before?
