Replacing cell numbers but leaving leading zero
I have a list of numbers that have a leading alphabetical character and then
1-3 zeros and then the rest of the numbers. I want to do a find and replace to eliminate the leading alpabetical character, but keep all of the remaining leading zeros. Even when I save the numbers as text, when I do the replace, the leading zeros are gone. suggestions? |
Replacing cell numbers but leaving leading zero
If it is just a single leading character then why not just use a formula like
this... =MID(A2, 2, 256) Where your text string is in A2. -- HTH...
