Gday gurus,

thanks for that... but i must be slightly retarded (or maybe severely). But the way I read that, I still have to do each cell individually.. I tried it and cant run down a column and only get rid of the errors.. all the data goes.. I must be doing something very very wrong.. Unless I have totally misunderstood you blokes
