Formula that just gets the first few numbers in a cell, not all?
=LEFT(A1,5)
or =MID(A1,1,5) two formula above are return text value not real Excel value. To covert text value to real Excel value you can use one of these formula. =--LEFT(A1,5) =LEFT(A1,5)+0 =LEFT(A1,5)*1 =LEFT(A1,5)^1 =VALUE(LEFT(A1,5)) =LEFT(A1,5)/1 =LEFT(A1,5)-0 Samething for MID function "KenCanuck" wrote: I know there's a function or formula in Excel that allows you to just look at the first or last few numbers in a particular cell.
