I believe you could also use the Value function. i.e. =Value(A1) would =
123456 if A1 contained '123456. You can copy that formula down a column and
if necessary then copy that column and Past Special Values.

Joe

If the text to columns thing worked, then the paste special/multiply thing
would have probably worked also, becuz both of them convert the text to
general, instead of text

Thanks. Formatting as number didn't work. I believe the cells had a ' in
front of them. The Data>Text thing did work. Interesting. I do have 2002
but doing the smart tag thing would have taken all weekend since there are
more than 5000 cells that were incorrectly formatted.
If there had not been an easy solution, I would have imported to Access,
changed the properties then exported back to Excel.
