How about using a formula in a help column, then paste the formula result as
values over the old values and finally delete the help column. Otherwise it requires code -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom Portland, Oregon "Jessica" wrote in message ... can I delete the 1st number from a string of numbers without adding another column for the formula? |

Assuming B2 is the Cell of string numbers
=MID(B2,2,LEN(B2)-1) It doesn't delete the 1st number but just gives you the other numbers without the 1st number. "Jessica" wrote: can I delete the 1st number from a string of numbers without adding another column for the formula? |
