RE: Type change in a declared Variable?

The problem is probably in the sheet data rather than the VBA.


If the data had been true numbers then the VBA would have performed
addition. If today's data was text that resembled numbers, VBA would have
treated the + as concatenation.

Check the data values carefully.
