How Do I Convert an Integer to a String in Excel VBA?
How do I convert the integer value "45" into the string value "45" in Excel VBA?
cstr(45) I think is all you need (convert string)
Try the CStr() function
Most times, you won't need to "convert"; VBA will do safe implicit type conversion for you, without the use of converters like CStr .
The below code works without any issues, because the variable is of Type String, and implicit type conversion is done for you automatically!
You don't even have to get that fancy, this works too:
The only time you WILL need to convert is when the variable Type is ambiguous (e.g., Type Variant, or a Cell's Value (which is Variant)).
Even then, you wont have to use CStr function if you're compounding with another String variable or constant. Like this:
"My favorite number is 7"
So, really, the only rare case is when you really want to store an integer value, into a variant or Cell value, when not also compounding with another string (which is a pretty rare side case, I might add):
In my case, the function CString was not found. But adding an empty string to the value works, too.
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:
The shortest way without declaring the variable is with Type Hints:
This will not compile with Option Explicit . The types will not be Variant but String and Integer

VBA: Convert Text to Number
I have columns of numbers that, for whatever reason, are formatted as text. This prevents me from using arithmetic functions such as the subtotal function. What is the best way to convert these "text numbers" to true numbers?
Here is a screenshot of the specific issue:
I've tried these snippets to no avail:
Use the below function (changing [E:E] to the appropriate range for your needs) to circumvent this issue:
I had this problem earlier and this was my solution.
This converts all text in columns of an Excel Workbook to numbers.
This can be used to find all the numeric values (even those formatted as text) in a sheet and convert them to single (CSng function).

I have covered how to do this using worksheet formulae, but it can also be done using vba.
If your variable (that is a number) is called Number, to convert this to text, use the following code:
It will now be stored in text format.
