Default Does anyone know how I can seperate a post code in my data sheet?


Hi,

I have a datasheet in excel and I would like to be able to seperate the
postcode index, the first letter or letters and copy them to another
field in my table.

for example:-

I would like to get SO45 1NQ and have SO in another field

but some postcodes only use one preceeding letter like:-

B1 2NQ and I would only require the letter B here in another field.

Does anyone know how I can easily do this, and then globally do it it
on my datasheet?

Cheers,

Graeme
