Separating Text From Numbers
Hi,
Does anyone know the formula to separate text from numbers? I tried applying the formula from an earlier post here (=LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-B1) =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-B1+1) but it didn't work for me. Did I miss something? Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated |

Separating Text From Numbers
You can use the LEFT, RIGHT, and MID formulas if the strings have some
consistancy in their makeup.......or, you can get the free add-in called ASAP Utilities, available at www.asap-utilities.com which has a feature to delete all alpha characters and/or to delete all numerical characters. You could just copy your data over to two columns, and use them. Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "Santi" wrote: Hi, Does anyone know the formula to separate text from numbers?
