Hi,

I like to extract a value at the end of text string. The long text string
ends with "Inc. for - 356989.23".

Is there a formula where I can just extract the value of "356989.23"
only.The values can in hundreds, thousands, millions, but there is always a
space between a hyphen and where the value start.

Thanks

Dinesh
