Hello everybody.

I've a cell assuming different values. For example:

105,32 euro

Now, with regex I've removed the non numeric value in order to have

105,32

My code:


Dim replacement As Object, trunc As String
Set replacement = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")
With replacement
.Pattern = "[^0-9.,]+"
.Global = True
.IgnoreCase = True
End With
result = replacement.Replace(trunc, "")


The problem is: the result has some hidden "" on the edges like

"105,32"

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Try

Code:
result = CDbl(replacement.Replace(trunc, ""))

Or
Code:
result = Val(replacement.Replace(trunc, ""))
