Thank you for the great information.

Would there happen to be a method to search for a consecutive 'string' of
numbers and place the $ before that string.

In other words, find 12,444.99 and insert a $ before that 'string'. Using
the method that you described puts a $ at: $12,$444.$99.

thanks again,
Kerns
