Default Converting multiple data codes to numbers

Hi there,

I have an extensive data set entered in excel. The data includes several
codes with number-letter combinations (e.g., 1a, 1b, 2f, etc). I need to
convert these codes to numerical values (e.g., 1a = 1). There are too many
to use the search / replace command. Is there a formula I can use to change
the codes more efficiently?

Thanks.
