Repeat a Macro
Hello-
I am a newbie here and at a very basic level of visual basic. What I am trying to accomplish is to remove the formatting of a phone number and I am trying to remove the first bracket around the area code of a phone number. What I want to do is create a macro that would repeat the following function: Range("Y2").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "9543/814-254666" With ActiveCell.Characters(Start:=1, Length:=15) End With However, for the active cell the data will be different for each active cell and not what is listed above ("9543/814-25466"). Can anyone help on 1) how to create the macro so it repeats the functionality and 2) how to state that the active cell could have any data in it but would need? Thank you. |

Repeat a Macro
Might be easier if you told us what the data looks like before the macro is
run and how you want it to look afterwards ... content and format. See if this helps: With Selection ' remove first character .Value = Right(.Value, Len(.Value) - 1) ' remove format .Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone End With Regards Trevor Regards "Victoria" wrote in message oups.com...
