or
replace(replace("0100000, 0201T00, 0301T00, 0401T00"," ",""),",", vbCRLF)

Thanks to MisterMo
your suggest is correct,but not yet completed..
Bcoz, the data must have array
Please help me..
 
Sorry but what exactly do you mean with array? How do you want the data to be displyed?

could you be more specific?

I try code like this :
Function remove(ByVal paramsite as String) as String
Dim s As String
Dim words() As String
Dim tempStr As String
s =paramsite
words() = Split(s)
For i = 0 To UBound(words)
tempStr = Replace(words(i), ".", "")
tempStr = Replace(tempStr, ",", "")
tempStr = Replace(tempStr, ":", "")
If Len(tempStr) > 0 Then
Return words.SubString(0,words.Length-2)
End If
Next
End Function

But I got error:
Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array.

Thanks for your advance
 
sorry but your logic is quite confusing
1) your function should return a string but you want to return an array

2) you have a return inside the loop without exit function and that will break the code

3) I can only assume that you want to read the array, remove commas(,), :)) and (.). And then remove the last two zeros

so IF I read your code right, this might guide you in the right direction, if a function is what you want to use.

Code:
    Function remove(ByVal paramsite As String) As String
        Dim RetStr As String
        Dim s As String
        Dim i As Integer
        Dim words() As String
        Dim tempStr As String
        s = paramsite
        words = Split(s, ",")
        For i = 0 To UBound(words)
            tempStr = Replace(words(i), ".", "")
            tempStr = Replace(tempStr, ",", "")
            tempStr = Replace(tempStr, ":", "")
            If Len(tempStr) > 0 Then
                words(i) = Left(words(i), words(i).Length - 2)
            End If
        Next
        RetStr = Join(words, vbCrLf)
        Return RetStr
    End Function

obviously there are other ways to do this but I am still not sure of what you really want for your report

good luck
