Find $
Hi,
This may be more complicated than necessary because it also find the cents if they are included =MID(A1,FIND("$",A1),FIND(" ",A1,FIND("$",A1))-FIND("$",A1)) If you just want to find the dollars as in your example use the simpler =MID(A1,FIND("$",A1),3) Mike "Max" wrote: I have data that starts with $ which is easy to find.
