How do I extract 3 numbers inside a longer number to another column ?
Hi, How do I extract the 008 from e.g. CV002-008-004_001 or the 001 from CV002-001_001 to another column ?

Try this: With CV002-008-004_001 in A1: B1: =LEFT(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)+1,255),3) That returns 008 Does that help?

Use the following fromula
=MID(your cell,7,3) This works only if you "008"s or "001"s are always 7 characters from the left...
