cleaning up a field
Hi All,
I'm using Excell 2003, i have file (about 3000 lines) that has a fied that needs to be cleaned up. Here's the example of the field: "CCMAIL:test, test at PAIREMOTE%MS:TEST/PAIREMOTE/TEST%X400:c=GB;a= ;p=test;o=PAIREMOTE;s=test;g=test;%SMTP:test.mail@ test.com%X400:c=US;a= ;p=test;o=test;s=test;%RFAX:Biosepr@" What i need is to clean out everything before and after the actual SMTP address, so all the field has is and nothing else. Can someone please help? (as you can see i'm not that good with Excel). Thanks much Alex |

Here's a non-macro solution. Copy/paste this formula into the next
column and change A6 to whatever cell is to the left =MID(A6,FIND("SMTP",A6)+5,FIND(".com",A6)-FIND("SMTP",A6)-1) --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ |
