EVal function in Excel VBA

[pannai]

Hi
I want to know if Eval function available in Excel VBA?

I want to evaluate values like below
st= "0>=15 or 0>=10"


Thanks

Check out the Evaluate function.

What are you expecting your example to evalute to? As it stands it won't work.

Why do you need a function?

What exactly should that evaluate to?

Sub eval()
Dim st As Boolean

st = 0 >= 15 Or 0 >= 10
MsgBox st

st = 20 >= 15 Or 0 >= 10
MsgBox st

End Sub

Hi
Actualy the expression is not a direct value. I am building the expression by checking various conditions and create the expression as string value.

for e.g, after various validations, my expression will be like below

ep="0>15 or 0>10"

now I want to execute the above expression,

if (ep)
{
do something
}
else
{
do otherthing
}

since ep is a string, it gives error in "if". for this scenario VBScript has Eval function which will evaluate the string expression and return the value.
But VBA doesn't have Eval function.

Sub eval()
Dim st As String

st = "=or(0 >= 15, 0 >= 10)"
MsgBox Evaluate(st)

st = "=or(0 >= 15, 20 >= 10)"
MsgBox Evaluate(st)
End Sub
