How Do I Convert an Integer to a String in Excel VBA?

Question

How do I convert the integer value \"45\" into the string value \"45\" in Excel VBA?

Answer 1

If the string you're pulling in happens to be a hex number such as E01, then Excel will translate it as 0 even if you use the CStr function, and even if you first deposit it in a String variable type. One way around the issue is to append ' to the beginning of the value.

For example, when pulling values out of a Word table, and bringing them to Excel:

strWr = "'" & WorksheetFunction.Clean(.cell(iRow, iCol).Range.Text)
