"I would like to use the VBA codes bellow that were writen by Gerry
Shaw in order to calculate some properties of proteins and DNA. However
how is this script such results can be done only for the selected cell

I would like to perform such operations for all cells in range (A:A)

change Case "A" to Case "a" and make corresponding changes to the other

Thank you Bob Phillips. The molecular weight VBA codes worked exactly
how I want however the IEP code have some strange problem! If you test
the same sequence in different cells you will obtain distinct values. I
can not understand what is happening...
Luciano

Can you tell me which is which, and supply some test data that demonstrates
it?

BTW, the ProtWeight macro aggregates a variable Y, if the character is Y,
but does not use it anywhere.

Thank you very much Bob Phillips!!
Now it is really working exactly how I would like to. This will be very
helpful for my work. Do you have some experience manipulating texts
like my another question for the forum related to texts manipulations
and subsequences using specific rules?
Best regards,
Luciano
