VBA CHR Function – Example #2

Step 1: Now the blank module is created, it is also called a code window, where you can start writing VBA CHR function statement codes.

Code:

Sub CHRAC()

Sheet1.Range("D6") = CHR(77)

End Sub

Step 2: The above-mentioned VBA code returns or results in an Upper-case alphabet M in “D6” cell, i.e. for the ASCII value 77.

Step 1: Start another subprocedure as follows,

Code:

Sub CHRAC1()

End Sub

Step 2: Similarly, multiple character codes can be obtained in the cell with the help of below-mentioned code

Code:

Sub CHRAC1()

Sheet1.Range("D9") = CHR(37)
Sheet1.Range("D11") = CHR(47)
Sheet1.Range("D13") = CHR(57)
Sheet1.Range("D15") = CHR(128)

End Sub

• CHR(37) will return a % (Percent symbol) in a cell “D9” whereas,
• CHR(47) returns / (Slash/Divide symbol) in the cell “D11”
• CHR(57) returns a numeric value 9 in the cell  “D13” &
• CHR(128) returns a Euro Sign in the cell “D11”

Code:

Sub CHRAC3()

Sheet4.Range("C3") = "GOOGLE" & CHR(153)

End Sub

Step 2: The above code, result in the below-mentioned output in the cell “K18”

Save your workbook as “Excel macro-enabled workbook”. By clicking on save as at the left corner of the worksheet. Once again if you open a file, you can click on shortcut key i.e. Fn + Alt +F8, “Macro” dialog box appears, where you can run a saved macro code of your choice or you can click on Fn + Alt + F11 for a full macro window.
