Default Help with Formula

cware,

There are a couple ways to do this. If you are looking to just remove the
word "Total", do a simple Replace (EditReplace) For:Total To:<nothing.

Or formulaically:
=TRIM(LEFT(A1,(LEN(A1)-5)))

Trim will remove any additional spaces.

I have a column that each cell ends with the word "Total". I need to convert
that column to remove that word from each cell. If I need to add a column to
do that, that's fine, I just cannot figure out how. Can anyone help me on
this one?

Thanks
