I can't see a 10 digit number in there, but assuming there is, try
=MID(A10,FIND("00",A10),10)

A large spread sheet contains one column that has the following info in
each cell. Each block of text contains a ten digit number that begins
with 00 and appears in a different place in the text. I need to write a
formula that will consistently pull the ten digit number to a new cell.
Any suggestions or help on an answer? thanks! Here is example!
