    what function to convert convert 34234 to 99999

    Hi all,

    I'm stuck in converting number to 9

    for example:
    34234 to 9999
    i've tried with ceiling function, and it works, but i have to enter 99999 so i can convert 34234 to 99999.
    is there anyway for me to get the conversion done without having me to write 99999?

    thanks in advance

    Maybe this will help

    Say data starts in A1 enter this in B1 and drag down


    =REPT(9,LEN(A1))
    or maybe a function

    Press Alt + F11 > Select insert module > paste in the below

    Then in a cell enter a formula like =ToNine(A1)
