hi there,

I have a problem I need help with. I have a worksheet that has a
column with 13 digit long number in it.
I want a formula (or is it conditional formatting) that will highlight
the cell if the last 5 digits of the number are not '00000'

The number is in text format and needs to stay that way. so I was
thinking there could be come way to examine the text .. I dunno. any
ideas greatly appreciated.

thanks!
