How To Convert Text To Number In Excel Vba

To convert text to a number in Excel VBA, you can use the Val() function. The Val() function returns the numbers from the beginning of a string until it encounters a character that is not a valid number.

Here’s an example of how to use the Val() function to convert text to a number:

        
            Dim textValue As String
            Dim numericValue As Double
            
            ' Assign the text value to be converted
            textValue = "123.45"
            
            ' Use the Val() function to convert the text value to a number
            numericValue = Val(textValue)
            
            ' Display the converted number
            MsgBox numericValue
        
    

In this example, the text value “123.45” is assigned to the variable textValue. The Val() function is then used to convert the text value to a number and store it in the variable numericValue. Finally, the MsgBox function is used to display the converted number in a message box.

Note that if the text value cannot be converted to a number, the Val() function will return 0. So it’s important to ensure that the text value is in a valid numeric format before using the Val() function.
