I have the following code below which I need amended to format the value extracted from B1 for eg as $ 415,250.75 ("$#,##0.00")


the value is extracted using VBA but not formatted asrequired above

Code:
  strBody = strBody & "Those over 60 days amount to " & Sheets(4).Range("B1") & "  vbNewLine & vbNewLine



Your assistance is most appreciated
 

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
Hello,

You can use : Format(Range("B1"), "$#,##0.00")

or

Code:
[COLOR=#333333]strBody = strBody & "Those over 60 days amount to " & Format(Sheets(4).Range("B1"),[/COLOR]"$#,##0.00"[COLOR=#333333])[/COLOR]

Hope this will help

Hi,
If the value in your cell is formatted as required then use Range.Text property to display in your code, what you see in the cell rather than it's underlying value

Rich (BB code):
strBody = strBody & "Those over 60 days amount to " & Sheets(4).Range("B1").Text & "  vbNewLine & vbNewLine"
