I have these data in a column:
5100-10650 sales
5100-11250 sales
How can I extract only 10650 and 11250 and present it in another
column?
Thanks.
theres a lot of ways to do this.
is it always a 5 digit number?
this will extract the number
=MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)+1,5)
this will turn it into a number value
=VALUE(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)+1,5))
if its more than 5 digits, then look for the word sales and work backward
=VALUE(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)+1,FIND("sales",A1)-7))
hope this helps
