Default FORMULA TO REMOVE TEXT FROM A CELL

Then you gave us bad examples because all your original examples showed a
number followed by text and indicated you wanted the number before the
space.

I am sorry what I sought was to have all the text be removed. Like:

1234Text
12Text34
Text1234

be converted to:

1234
1234
1234

I think this process give you what I think you ultimately want to end up
with. Select all the cells in the column from the first value to the last
value in the column (it is okay to select the mixture of cells with text
and
cells with just numbers in them), click Edit/Replace from the menu bar,
type
a space followed by and asterisk in the "Find what" field, leave the
"Replace with" field empty, then hit the "Replace All" button.
