Hi Luis. Rather than trying to delete one set of numbers from the cells, why
not use Data-Text to Columns and use the comma as the delimiter. You could then delete the column you don't want. Another approach would be to use Left(A1,2) to get the 27 (assuming it is in A1), or right(A1,3) to get the 80%.

If the text is in cell A1 you could find the text to the left of the comma
with a formula like: =LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1)-1) To find the text to the right of the comma (excluding the space) you could use a formula like: =MID(A1,FIND(",",A1)+2,LEN(A1)-FIND(",",A1)+2) HTH, TK "Luis" wrote: I want to delete part of the content of multiple cells at the same time, for example: 27, 80% 35, 90% if I want to delete everything but the percentage numbers, what formula would work? or viseversa, If I want to leave the first set of numbers and delete the comma space percentage numbers?
