The following formula assumes that your numbers are positive, and that there will be no more than three characters in the numeric expression. If there are more than three characters, then merely extend the array constant near the end (the one that presently looks like {1,2,3}. This formula must be **array-entered**: =MAX(IFERROR(--MID(J6,MIN(FIND({1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0},J6&"12345678 90")),{1,2,3}),"")) ---------------------------------------- To **array-enter** a formula, after entering the formula into the cell or formula bar, hold down <ctrl<shift while hitting <enter. If you did this correctly, Excel will place braces {...} around the formula. |

Please show the exact types of entries that you are having a problem with, the result of using the formula, and your expected output. |
