Hi,

After a merge operation I have a column, F, which contains
a decimal value. I wish to apply a formula to the value
and then replace the existing cells with the *value* from the
formula.

I want to incorporate this into my VBA and am looking for an
easy way. Help very much appreciated.

I have a solution now. I would like to know if anyone has
suggestions for improvement. Specifically, is it possible
to end up with the following result "in-place" without
first creating a temporary column to do the work, then
deleting it?

Here is my VBA. Note that Col. E contains the date. Col. F
contains either hh:mm:ss or a 5-or-6-digit "fake" replica of
time that my below formula converts to hh:mm:ss. (See a recent
thread in microsoft.public.excel.misc for where that came from.)
My replacement Col. F will combine the two values in one and format
it as hh:mm:ss. (I will later use this column to sort the sheet
chronologically.)

I am making a temporary Col. G to do the calculation and then
paste it back over the current Col. F.

Note, also, that "LastRow" is a function not shown here. I
got it from Ron de Bruin's sheet-merge pages.

.EnableEvents = False

Columns("G:G").Insert Shift:=xlToRight

Set myRgF = Range("F3", Cells(LastRow(ActiveSheet), "F"))
Set myRgG = myRgF.Offset(0, 1)

myRgG.Formula = myFormula
myRgG.Copy
myRgF.Select

Selection.NumberFormat = "h:mm:ss;@"
Columns("G:G").Select

Nobody has anything good or bad to say about my VBA? "It's fine"?
"It sucks"? "It could be made better thus and so"? I thought
you guys enjoyed discussing code here? Have I broken some
unspoken rule of the group?
