Default Reducing the number of digits in a cell

Hi,

Is there a way of automatically reducing the number of digits in a
cell?

I have a spreadsheet containing 16,000 zip/postcodes. I need to remove
the last two digits in each postcode. Is this possible?

Any help that anyone can give would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
George
