How do you convert a string to a double?How do you convert a string to a double? This does not work:
string1 = Right(Left(data(k), 21), 2)
double1 = CDbl(string1)
It gives a "Type mismatch" error every time.
Hi,
I think you need to tell us what data(k) is holding but in the meantime isn't
string1 = Mid(data(k), 20, 2)
the same as
string1 = Right(Left(data(k), 21), 2)
and a bit more simple

If I understood your question correctly - you might try hitting Alt+Enter in
order to go to a new line in the same cell

I am not sure if this can be done, but is there a way to insert space above ling of text so that it is not flush with the line above it? like an indent, only above the contents of the cell so that there is white space around the cell/line content? <br>
I tried centering the text, but I wanted a more uniform look.
Nothing such as the paragraph spacing in Word. Adjust the height of the row
then use Format> Cells> Alignment> Vertical Alignment, set it to either

Separating strings in a field to separate fieldsHi,
I have a field that consists of a string value that looks like Item1,
Item2, Item3, each item is separated by commas. I want to separate
that string value so that each item has its own field. Is there code
that will easily do this?
Thanks,

Make a text box fit the value insideIn my report design view, I have a text box which is filled with blue color.
When I view the report in print preview, the box always remains the same size
depsite the length of characters of the value. I want the entire value to
fit on one line. Values range from two characters to 30 characters in size.
Selecting "yes" for "can grow" or "can shrink" for the text box properties
does not make a difference. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

PivotTableHi,
I have a PivotTable with two columns - student names and tuition.
I highlighted the **grand total tuition** with fill color. Please note that
only ONE cell had this format.
However, when I changed the column of student names to a row of student
names (by moving the "button"), all the tuition (and not just the grand
total) had the fill color. Is this a bug? Is there a way to get around
this? I know I can remove the fill color first, change from column to row
then put back the fill color. Just wondering if there is a better way.
Appreciate advice.

Merging text strings into a single cellHELP!!!! I have created 2 separate columns of text data in a large spread
sheet (over 600 rows of data). Now I need to merge the 2 columns together so
that the text descriptions from each column are combined together into a
single column.
If the cells were numeric it would not be a problem (i.e. if C3 were the
finished result I was looking for cell C3 would read "=A3+B3. Only problem is
Excel simply tells me the formula is invalid because it's text data. Merging
the cells of each row simply cuts the text off from the 2nd cell. How can
this problem be resolved?????

Conditional formatting not quite working rightI have a form that is generated by a query. The query is populated via

I want all values in the report that are over 1.99% to show up as red.
Those values at 1.99% and lower should show up as green. IOW, percent
values from 0 to 1.99% are good values and show green. Anything at 2%
and over is bad, and should show up as red.
I've created conditinal formatting in several different ways, using

A cell copied onto one worksheet from another worksheet does display same formatting.I have 2 worksheets in my workbook. On worksheet "A" i have a number in red font with black background in cell B1. On worksheet "B" the contents of cell A1 is =A!B1. This copies the value located in cell B1 of worksheet "A" but not the color formatting. How can that get copied as well?

A formula has one single job: to return a value into its own cell. No

UDF to Convert formula results to textCan a UDF be used to convert formula results from column A to text in
column B?
I know that I can manually cut and paste "special" to achieve this, but I
want to avoid a manual step.
Instead of a UDF use a macro. Change columns(2) to columns(1) to change the
column withOUT the need for an additional column.
Sub converttovalues()
Columns(2).Value = Columns(1).Value
End Sub

format colors on bar charts by valueI'm working on a Bar chart with 5 bars. What I would like to do is change

If the value is 1 I would like it to change the color of the bar to red, if
it is 2 I'd like it to change to yellow, if it is 3 I'd like it to change to
green.
Can this be done?

Paste Special as TextI have a small program that drops text from a Word table into Excel
using Paste Special as Text.
Although Paste Special as Text should insert the contents of the

Excel 2003 splits the data when it meets a New Line or Carriage Return
and drops anything after it down to row below.
Any ideas what is causing this behaviour
