How about this simple UDF:

Public Function Numerals(rng As Range) As String

' gsnuxx

Dim sStr As String, i As Long, sStr1 As String
Dim sChar As String
sStr = rng.Value
For i = 1 To Len(sStr)
sChar = Mid(sStr, i, 1)
If sChar Like "[0-9]" Then
sStr1 = sStr1 & sChar
End If
Next
Numerals = sStr1
End Function


That should work OK so long as there are numerals after the initial set of
numbers.

For example: 123ABC6GH

Your UDF -- 1236 and I suspect the OP would probably want 123
