i have a range(1000 rows) that i want to apply a change to. Its basically taking a variable and placing at the front of each string along with a comma. here is a before and after

6 of 1998 3-0-1 100.00% 14-18-2 43.75%
36, 6 of 1998 3-0-1 100.00% 14-18-2 43.75%

variable was 36 in this case. I though it was simple enough, but i get a 'Type MisMatch' error.

What is proper syntax, would EVALUATE help out?? thanks


Code:
Formula = 36

With Rng
    .Value = Formula & "," & .Value
End With

Code:
Sub ilcaa()
   Dim Strategy As String
   Strategy = "36"
   With Range("A1", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
      .Value = Evaluate("If({1},""" & Strategy & ", ""&" & .Address & ")")
   End With
End Sub

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
is there anyway you can explain why so many quotes are needed, why they are placed where they are? i cant figure out the logic of these evaluate statements especially with so many quotes and & symbols...
