Good morning, i have been trying various code, and copied some i have found on the internet, but am unable to get any to work.

I am trying to remove the character "/" from column i , which contains numbers in this format 111111/22/11111111///11

this was the latest attempt, is there a reason this is not working

lrow = 2
Do While (Cells(lrow, "A") <> "")
If Cells(lrow, "i").Value Like "/" Then
Cells(lrow, "i").Value = Replace(Cells(lrow, "i").Value, "/", "")

End If
lrow = lrow + 1
Loop

thanks
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Try this code to replace "/" with ""

Selection.Replace What:="/", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False

thanks that works, I just need to change the column format to text first, as it changes the numbers to [TABLE="width: 135"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: right"]7.81742E+15[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody><colgroup><col></colgroup>[/TABLE]
