Default Deleting partial information from all cells in a column

Ps. If your serial numbers look like:

s01234
you'll end up with
1234
(dropping the leading 0)

You may be able to just change the number format
format|cells|number tab|custom category: 00000
to show the leading 0's.

I have a column containing serial numbers but some of those numbers have an
'S' in front of them. Is there a way to delete the 'S' from all the cells
but leave the number there?
