took 131 seconds. By substituting val( line ) <> 0 for isNumeric

Unfortunately, that?s not the same thing. For example, this line would
return true:
Val( ?33back? ).
I wasn't actually suggesting that it was equivalent.
I was suggesting that the IsNumeric routine is very slow compared to
the string concatenation by joining arrays part of it.
