This is an extract of larger project
Simplified it to just experiment in immediate window to try and get it to work
I put 123.456 in A1, and formatted it using the Format, Number, Fraction, As Sixteenths
Displays correctly on worksheet as 123 7/16
When I try to Format() it internally as part of a string, I get 123 ??/16
Does Format() work with fraction formats??activecell.NumberFormat # ??/16 ?format(123.456, "# ??/16") 123 ??/16

Found an answer - Format () for fractions doesn't work, but Application.WorksheetFunction.Text () does
?application.WorksheetFunction.Text(123.456, "# ??/16") 123 7/16
