Excel Formulas Treated as Strings
I am trying to create a formula through code.
I am managing to do this but in the actual cell the formula is not being calculated. It is being treated as text. Ex. In cell B1 i have a value of 500 I want to create a formula showing 500 *5 in cell b2. in cell b2 I am calling a function ChgVal(B1). The result in B2 is correctly showing =500*5 but it is not showing the value 2500. I also tried using the VALUE command but to no avail. Can anyone pls help? Thanks |
