Yes, it does help a lot! I was using commas instead of semicolons and was
looking at a filtered list of functions. The expression I had was
=CHAR(MOD(A1,26)+64) and when I got the error I clicked on the Fx function
Wizard button on the address bar and didn't notice that it was filtered to
Text functions at that point.

Thanks for your help and for your speedy response

Regards,

Paul Bennington
