Tests and Notes on Range objects in Excel Cell

[DocAElstein]

General all purpose version of our final Evaluate Range solution Range variable, The left hand side, LHS, of a general purpose code line.
The left hand side, LHS, of a general purpose code line.
_....... This Rng is referring to the test data range.
We want to modify/ correct that, so up until now that was the thing on the LHS.
But, it is convenient in test and development not to replace the original range, but perhaps rather, if you have space, put the output from the coding calculations somewhere alongside. That way if something goes wrong, you don’t have to try and find the original data in order to try again. For example this would be the LHS to place the result alongside to the right. _Let Rng.Offset(0, Rng.Columns.Count).Value =

That is a good choice to use as we are sure to place to the right, since we offset the output a number of column equal to the number of columns that the range has. Personally, I might do this
_Let Rng.Offset(0, Rng.Columns.Count + 1).Value =
, since an extra empty column in between can have later advantages.

Number stored as text, alignment of numeric values in cells

Improved/ Extended Evaluate Range solution.

Based on all the posts so far on this page, we have got this far,

Sub Number_stored_as_text()  '    https://www.excelfox.com/forum/showthread.php/2909-Appendix-Thread-Evaluate-Range-(-Codes-for-other-Threads-HTML-Tables-etc-)?p=21967&viewfull=1#post21967
Dim Ws1 As Worksheet, Rng As Range
 Set Ws1 = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Item("Sheet1")
 Set Rng = Ws1.Range("A1:F7")
Dim strEval As String
 Let strEval = "=1*" & Rng.Address & ""
Debug.Print strEval '  gives =1*$A$1:$F$7

 Let Rng.Offset(0, Rng.Columns.Count + 1).Value = Evaluate(strEval)
End Sub

Oh bollox, a couple of problems
We see a couple of problems. An empty cell comes out as a 0 in the output, and text in any cell results in an error in the output.

In the next post, we look at overcoming these two problems
