Default Find and Length

Marc,

Replace the 7s and 6s with FIND(",",F4)-FIND("=",F4)+2

for each cell.

HTH,

Hello - In my example I have 3 cells that have a combination of letters and
numbers. I want to extract the numbers and total them in my formula cell.
The formula below works, but I'm looking for a way to use a variable to
extract the lenght of the number instead of hard coding the length. 156,400
and 394,450 are each 7, but 53,000 is only 6.

Thanks for any help you can give.

F4 - 200 @ 782 = 156,400 50 - target changes 60 - mgmt changes 90 -
discretionary

F5 - 575 @ 686 = 394,450 (partnership)
F6 - 50 @ 1060 = 53,000 (full service) 22,000 units x $38/1000 SGI - 32
hours x 7/hour

FORMULA -
=text(sum(mid(f4,find("=",f4)+2,7)+(mid(f5,find("= ",f5)=2,7)))=(mid(f6,find("=",f6)+2,6)),"0,000 ")
