Ryan,

Thanks, good thought but not applicable.

I would be entering a 5 digit zipcode in cell a1, and want the first
three
digits
to appear in cell a2

Let me know if you can think of anything.

A round about way would be to have it multiply by .01 and then either
convert it to a integer or just have it not show decimals
