Leading Apostrophe
Yes but like everyone else I got the leading apostrophe. I guess I should
export as the CVS files and then save as an xls. file. Or has anyone come up with a way to get rid of the apostrophe? |

Try this small macro:
Sub tic_killer() Set rr = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConst ants, xlTextValues) For Each r In rr If r.PrefixCharacter = "'" Then r.Value = r.Value End If Next End Sub -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200803 " wrote: Yes but like everyone else I got the leading apostrophe.

I got an error message saying the syntac was incorrect and that the security
level was set to low to run the macro.

Hi,
What you can alternatively do is that type a number 1 in any cell and then copy this number. Now select the range and then Edit Paste Special Multiply. -- Regards, Ashsih Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com " wrote in message ...
