VBA removes slashes
I am new to VBA in excel. So, i create a string from multiple parts and output it in a cell on some sheet like this:
Sheets("Output").Cells(iRow, 1).Value = LArray(0) + "?" + adding + "/#" + LArrayNew(1)
I am expecting: text?text/#text
But result on excel sheet is: text?text#text
Where is the "/"?

Use & to concatenate strings in VBA. I can run the following for example: Debug.Print "text?text" & "/#" & "text"

The+sign makes VBA to try to calculate with"/#"like it was a number and this results in a strange behavior here.

Something like:
Sub dural()
Dim LArray(0 To 1) As String
Dim adding As String, LArrayNew(0 To 1) As String
adding = "X"
LArrayNew(1) = "New"
LArray(0) = "0"
iRow = 1
Sheets("Output").Cells(iRow, 1).Value = LArray(0) & "?" & adding & "/#" & LArrayNew(1)
End Sub
will produce:
0?X/#New
Note the slash is there!

@Pᴇʜ I did miss the change...................I fixed it now ............. Thanks for the help
