the --RIGHT(D3,5) works perfect. Thanks

Being a text function, the right function will return text.
To cause Excel to perform an implicit type change from text to numeric try
one of these:
=--RIGHT(D3,5)
=RIGHT(D3,5)*1
Does that help?

How do you get excel to recognize the data as a number when using the right
or left formula? For example, cell L73 has the following formula:
=RIGHT(D3,5)
The data this equation produces is +137. I have another cell that has a
formula that says =IF(ISNUMBER(L73),L73,"NO"). The answer I get is NO. I
should get +173. I have formatted cell L73 to be a number.
How do I fix this formula? Thanks
