Remove h
 

My spreadsheet has 7 Columns of data..A:G. I have monthly sales numbers to
the right of that with the month headers starting in H4. The monthly numbers
will have a trailing h with them. The monthly columns may be H6:N50 or H6 to
JA 5000. The numbers in H6:...could be one diget to 10 digets. Is there any
way to go through this and eliminate the h?

thanks in advance,

CB

The following code should do what you're after:


Code:
--------------------


Sub removeH()
Range(Cells(6, "H"), Cells(Rows.Count, Columns.Count)).Replace _
What:="h", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False
End Sub
--------------------

you could do this with formulas, but since you're asking in the excel
programming group, here's some code that will do it. This has user manually
select the cells they want it to work on. But you could just as easily
define a set range...

Sub StripRightH()

For Each cell In Selection.Cells
If cell < "" And UCase(Right(cell, 1)) = "H" Then _
cell.Value = Left(cell, Len(cell) - 1)
Next cell

End Sub

Not sure why my posts don't appear on the actual newsgroups all the
time. Anyway..

Range(Cells(6, "H"), Cells(Rows.Count, Columns.Count)).Replace _
What:="h", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _

This works fine for a selection. Is there another way to do this by asking
for the range from the user, then converting this back to text as the cells
see them as a number stored as text.

Thanks

Odd.. I'm monitoring the newsgroups right on Microsoft.com and through
codecage.com (where I'm submitting replies), and it takes 40-60 minutes
for my replies from codecage.com to appear on the actual newsgroups, and
I'm refreshing several times per minute.

The posting times when they do appear (adjusted for Pacific - Central
time) is 40+ minutes later on average. I just re-posted the same answer
by logging directly into the newgroups and it took a few minutes to
appear there. (Understandable but still slow.)

Darn technology!!
