If your data is in Column A, *and* you will *always* have a <space and 6
characters after the "WO#", then try this:
=MID(A1,FIND("WO#",A1),10)
And copy down as needed.

I have a column that has a description of each of my inventoried items.
The
syntax is not the same for any of them. Each one of these items has a
specific section that I need to extract to another column. Since they
are
not
in the same location within the field how would I pull this data out?
The
data I'm looking for is the "WO# 223900". The 6 digits are not always
the
same either but the "WO#" is. How can I extract this info from my field?
