Hi this will do it for you;

Public Function ConvertOctalToDecimal(BinVal As String) As Long
Dim lngVal As Long
Dim lngTemp As Long
Dim i As Integer
Dim Length As Integer
 
Length = Len(BinVal)
For i = 0 To Length - 1
    lngTemp = CInt(Mid(BinVal, Length - i, 1))
    lngVal = lngVal + (lngTemp * (8 ^ i))
Next i
ConvertOctalToDecimal = lngVal
End Function
