Put simply, my formula looks at each character in turn and multiplies it by
1. This will error if is not a number, so it easily extracts the numeric
values.

Thank you both, Tom and Bob.
I wanted a spreadsheet solution, but I didn't know how to do it with code
either.
I don't understand the spreadsheet solution as provided by Bob, but it
does
work. I'll have to see if I can figure out what you have done here to
make
this work.

Thank you both again.
Bernie

I want to know how many digits (numbers) there are at the end of a
string,
so that I may move them elsewhere.
For example:
A1= "Consider This Example489".
This example has three digits.
Because I know A1 has 3 digits (after someone explains how to compute
it),
then B1=Right(A1,3)=489.

Thanks,
Bernie
