I hope that helps. Cheers. "Leon" wrote: Is there a formula which I can use to strip out a particular character from a text string? I have been sent a database with addresses in one of the columns. The data has presumably been copied from a capture program and where some fields were empty then an asterisk is reflected eg. 4 LINGFIELD CLOSE,*,*,*,MILNERTON RIDGE,7441. I want the result 4 LINGFIELD CLOSE,MILNERTON RIDGE,7441 |
