Spacing problems

If you want to match up using numbers--not text that looks like numbers, try
this:
=--RIGHT(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(A1,CHAR(32),"")),4)
or
=--RIGHT(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(A1," ","")),4)
the -- stuff changes text numbers to number numbers.
And to excel:
'1234 (treated as text) isn't the same as 1234 (a real number).

Hello everybody,
I am importing a phonelist via a web query. my phone numbers look like
this when imported:
11 22 33 44
I want to remove the spaces and only return the last four digits - how
is this done most easily?
Is it possible to Vlookup in a web query qithout problems?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Mike - that works great. Now I want to lookup in my query. Why
does it return #N/A? If I copy and insert values it does work. But
then I do not get the automation.... Hope somebody can help solve
this.

Hi Mike
=VLOOKUP(B2;3;Sheet1!$J$3:$L$135;FALSE)
It is a straightforward lookup. But the lookup area is a web query.
Moreover I have added a column to the lookup area where I have
calculations (the above right formula). It returns #N/A. I have also
tried to use a named area - still returns #N/A. any thoughts?
Best regards
