Will the extracted phrase always be 5 characters in length? If so:
=MID(A1,35,5) HTH, Elkar "Wooddy" wrote: I want to extract a certain alpha numberic phrase within a cell which is always in the 35th place. I want to extract the N21S8 for all rows in my spreadsheet. ie: E300 CB 210X425 STD CEUT E N21S8 |
