I got an Excel Spread sheet from one of my suppliers and I'm trying to use the data to do a bulk import into my online store.

One of the fields is written in "general" format. All the cells in the column are written as fractions (including the " sign) i.e. 3 3/4"

I used the following function to strip off the "

=CONCATENATE(LEFT(AB2, LEN(AB2)-1))

My problem is no matter how I format the cells, I can't get the resulting fractional number to appear as a decimal number (I need it to be in decimal form not "behind the scenes" but visually in the cell so it imports properly.

I know that this should be simple, but it aint for me!

HELP!
