The problem is you have a blank space AND a character that looks like a
blank, but isn't (it has ASCII code 160... you probably got your text from a website I'm guessing). Anyway, this formula should work for you... =IF(COUNT(FIND("/",Q2)),--TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(MID(Q2,FIND("/",Q2)-3,8),CHAR(160),"")),"") -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "Wanna Learn" wrote in message ... Hello in cell Q2 I have the following information EXT 1/5/08 RIVERS in cell "AT" I have =IF(COUNT(FIND("/",Q2)),--MID(Q2,FIND("/",Q2)-3,8),"") but I get #VALUE! what I want to do is extract the date, thanks for your help |
