Marcella,
Use the 'text to columns' function under in the data ribbon (2007) or the Data drop-down menu (2003). Use the 'fixed-width' selection and position the column breaks on either side of the number you want to pull out. If that doesn't work, use the 'delimited' option, using the colon as as the delimiter. That will get you close. Then, find the one column with the number you want and delimit it again with the 'space' as the delimiter. That will get you the number you want. I am sure there is a formula you could use but that is beyond my skill set. HTH.
