Hi everyone could someone help me I just need to write simple macro that will change number from this format: 1.234 into format using comma instead of dot : 1,234
Also I need to change sign of degrees into nothing. So if there will be some number like this 1.234° final result will be 1,234.

I tried this but dont work:
Sub Replace()

Workbooks(2).ActiveSheet.Range("G9:G136").Replace What:=".", Replacement:=","
Workbooks(2).ActiveSheet.Range("G9:G136").Replace What:="°", Replacement:=""

End Sub

I think there have to be additional xlPart defined or something.
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
This is the best way I can do:
VBA Code:
Sub test()
  Call ReplaceDecimal(Range("G9:G136"))
  Call ReplaceDegree(Range("G9:G136"))
End Sub
Sub ReplaceDecimal(rng As Object)
  For Each r In rng
    r.Value = "'" & Replace(r.Text, ",", ".")
  Next
End Sub
Sub ReplaceDegree(rng As Range)
  For Each r In rng
    r.Value = "'" & Replace(r.Text, "°", "")
  Next
End Sub
