Default remove last character in a column of part numbers if a "V"

Assuming data is in column A, put this in a helper column and copy
down.........

=IF(RIGHT(A1,1)="v",LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-1),A1)

then Copy PasteSpecial Values on that helper column and then replace
your original column A with it......
