Convert Text To Number
I have about 15K id numbers I need to convert from text to number. All of the
id numbers end with _, for example, 106102_. I need to import these id numbers into Access but I can't convert them in Access and I can't figure out how to convert them in Excel so that I may import them. Can someone help? Thanks! |

If you have ID numbers in column A enter this formula in B1 and copy down. =(LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-1))*1 Regards, Per "Antney" skrev i meddelelsen ...
