I have two long columns of numbers...One formatted as currency...And one as

How would I take a column of about 3,000 entries formatted as currency (
$230,545 ) and convert it to 'text as number' while keeping the $ and , in
the final number ? Everything I have tried in the 'numbers to text'
function removes the $ & ,

Thanks, Tim
