Text to value
Hi all, would appreciate some help
I've got the following string "week"&RIGHT(A6,2)&"move99.5" which looks something like this "week05move99.5" I have defined the name (week05move99.5 to equal 500) so basically when I type in (week05move99.5) I want to see 500. now because "week"&RIGHT(A6,2)&"move99.5" = "week05move99.5" which is a Text string I dont get any value. I have tried VALUE ("week"&RIGHT(A6,2)&"move99.5") but I get #VALUE! Has anyone got any good ideas. thx!!!!!!! |
