concatenate text and formatted cell

R

Reddy

Hello
I'm trying to concatenate some text and the numeric value of a cell
formatted to 2 decimal places and enter the result in a cell -
VarPasteCell.
Using the following vba code in excel,

VarPasteCell.Value = "DP:£" & Cell.Offset(0, 5).Value

I get the result DP:£6.8 but am looking for DP:£6.80 as the number is
a price.

Is there a way to format the number in the same line of code? I've
tried using application.round(cell.offset(0,5).value, 2) and various
other custom formatting techniques but can't get it to work.

Please can you help?
Thanks in advance

maybe

Range("VarPasteCell").Value = "DP:£" & Range("VarPasteCell").Offset(0, 5).Text

maybe

Range("VarPasteCell").Value = "DP:£" & Range("VarPasteCell").Offset(0,5).Text

Excellent!
Replacing .Value with .Text works a treat.
Thanks v much
