Default how to extract numbers from imported cell with text and number

thanks mike! (:

unfortunately, i forgot to add that i need the data to keep refreshing every
hour. i tried using 'text to columns' but after splitting, cells are removed
from the imported data and cannot be refreshed.

does anyone know how to extract the number from an imported cell if the cell
contains both text and numbers?
eg. the cell contains "USD 30.79 (March 27, 2007)" but i want to use only
30.79 in a formula in another cell
