    Format numeric characters as subscript

    I'm trying to help out my daughter (who is a Chemical Engineering student) with her various Excel files. She has lists of chemical names in their molecular formulas and wants to subscript the numeric characters that follow non-numeric characters. I figured out how to do it with a single cell but for some reason I can't get it to work with a range of cells.

    Examples
    H2O The 2 is subscripted
    H2SO4 The 2 and the 4 are subscripted
    2CCl4 The 2 is not subscripted but the 4 is


    The following code will work only on the first cell of the selection and then stops.

    Could someone please point out where I'm going wrong?

    Never mind. I figured it out.

    I changed the ActiveCell reference to rng.

    Thanks anyway
