I know the subject line is a bit vague, let me explain.

Using Excel 2000, I have a cell "A1" with the value "18E" in it. In
cell "A2" I need to report *only* the number value in cell "A1", and
in
cell "A3" I need *only* the letter found in cell "A1."

The problem: the contents of "A1" could be any value from 0 to 100 and
there *may or may not* be any letter at all in the cell. I need the
number reported regardless of what it is, and I need the letter to be
reported, but if it's not present I need it to report something like
"none."

Caveat: I can't use any macros at all in this worksheet, so no macro
answers can be used.

Any non-macro assistance you can give me is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
PH

Try
In A2 =IF(ISNUMBER(A$1),A$1,LEFT(A$1,LEN(A$1)-1))
In A3 =IF(ISNUMBER(A$1),"none",RIGHT(A$1,1))
