Greetings,
Excel probably has a way to get it to return exactly what you want –but I don’t know it J I’d have suggest the format command: Here are some examples to prove it will work regardless of the data returned by Excel. mydata = "10000" Debug.Print Format(mydata, "#.00") mydata = "10.3" Debug.Print Format(mydata, "#.00") mydata = "10.34" Debug.Print Format(mydata, "#.00") Regards, Thom Thom C.

All of them work OK – unless I have “zero zero” past the decimal point. Then it just scripts in the dollar amount, and not the decimal point and zero zero. Here’s the relevant code I’m using. I’ve also defined the variable as Currency, but still no luck. Any ideas? Is it the “Value” that’s dropping the zeroes?: Global gbCharge As String Set oExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application") Set oBook = oExcel.Workbooks.Open("J:\PHA\Bill-Codes-2009-11-16-zeroes-partial.xls") Set oSheet = oBook.Worksheets("Charges") oSheet.Activate oExcel.Visible = True intRow = 1 strCell = "E" & intRow oSheet.range(strCell).Select gbCharge = Trim(oExcel.ActiveCell.Value) Gary Hall Director of Information Technology Estes Park Medical Center 970-577-4443 (office) 970-744-9052 (cell) 970-577-4355 (fax) --- To post a message to this list, send mail to: [email protected] You are currently subscribed as: [email protected] Unsubscribe in the customer center on our website: http://www.bostonworkstation.com/customer_center/virtual_user_group_talk.aspx --- To post a message to this list, send mail to: [email protected] You are currently subscribed as: [email protected] Unsubscribe in the customer center on our website: http://www.bostonworkstation.com/customer_center/virtual_user_group_talk.aspx Nh֦zh+-ݙZF&b.\ &u-$en,\e'rz).&z‑z.+^i0,,bw(.&z‑楺ǫ.֥)
