Default Copy only the number from a text string

Hi Trevor,

Let's try this:

=VALUE(MID(RIGHT(A3,6),FIND(" ",RIGHT(A3,6))+1,LEN(RIGHT(A3,6))-FIND("
",RIGHT(A3,6))))


That one doesn't work for me with a value like "a a 233" or similar. It
seems that it won't work for anything with 2 separate spaces in the last 6
digits.

Regards,
