    Convert Range to String

    Hello,

    I am trying to take the number that appears in the cell Range(B1:C1) and have it used in a string. B1:C1 is a merged cell that I cannot change in the sheet. Eventually I want to use the string as the subject line of an email, but for this time I am having it appear in a message box.

    Since B1:C1 are merged cells, you only have to use the value from B1
    Then again, xlnitwit's solution is much easier.

    Re: Convert Range to String

    Why do you need Merged cell/wrapped cell in B1:C1 ? I would eliminate it. Create a simple formula/function: mySt = sheet1.Range("B1") - You can verify it in immediate window ( debug.Print cstr(myst) ) or use Cstr( ) .

    Re: Convert Range to String

    Thank you all for the responses. Each one of these solutions seemed to work. I would like to get rid of the merged cell, but the actual sheet that this is going in (not the one attached) was one that I inherited and I cannot change it without fixing a lot of editing the other formulas and Macros.

    Thanks again!
