CDbl is locale-aware, so check if your Replace is correct (for example, in my locale, I have to replace "." by "," in order for it to work). If you don't want to rely on locale-aware code, use Val instead of CDbl because Val only recognizes "." as a valid decimal separator regardless of locale.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
