Hello there,
first of all great addin but I have a problem regarding the format of a
cell:
That's what I want, but when I push F9 again to refresh I am getting the
following from time to time for each stock:
How can I avoid that?
cheers

My initial reaction was that it must have been a glitch from Yahoo.
However, I see some items your email that indicate you're a German user. Is
it possible that it is a result of some type of misinterpretation of the
CSV file, because of German denotation of dollars and cents? The program is
designed to run under US regional settings of the operating system, as that
affects how numbers are processed in VBA.
Are you doing an array-entered formula, or individual formulas? If
array-entered, are those the only four data items you are retrieving for
each stock?
Overall, I'm confused.

The VBA environment wouldn't care what your EXCEL setting was. VBA uses the
regional setting of the operating system, not EXCEL.
I'm still confused. I can't imagine what would have caused such a number,
other than a glitch from Yahoo, based on your formula invocation (I'm
assuming you had "l1" before instead of "l").
I just can't think what format of number from Yahoo would be translated to
783.25.
If the number had been 78.325, German conversion wouldn't result in 783.25,
correct?

Yep I had l1 before.
Well in Germany we use , (comma) instead of . (dot)
Do you think that is the problem?
The cells are formated in "Standard"
That is the output of custom:
As soon as I push the f9 button and the output is e.g. 1432221, the cell
interprets that as 14322,21
As long as the yahoo output is xx.xx everthing is fine

It certainly appears that VBA using the non-US regional setting from the
operating system is the cause of the problem, based on the "l1" vs "l"
comparison.

Is there a workaround? Modifying the VBA that only 2 numbers after the
dot are allowed?

Hmmm. Now that I think about it, the RCHGetYahooQuotes() routine is nothing
more than a CSV parser. It doesn't actually convert anything into numeric
values. So it has to be EXCEL doing it. RCHGetYahooQuotes() is simply
returning a string for the value of the cell.
What happens if you type this in a cell in EXCEL:
143.625
What number do you end up with? Or, maybe more appropriately, the German
equivalent of:
=VALUE("143.625")

That really didn't tell me anything. Not sure what to tell you at this
point...
The problem is that you're retrieving data in a US format, under a non-US
regional setting, using a US-based tool.
Staying with a non-US regional setting, I think your only workaround is to
retrieve the "l" data item and then extract it and convert it yourself.
