Excel VBA MID Function
 
Hi
why do you want to use a VBA macro. You could use the worksheet formula
=MID(A1,5,4)
in B1 and copy this down

But maybe I'm missing something in your requirements

Hi,

I do have strings of characters in a column of cells. Each cell has
exact the same number of characters (11). Like this:

Cells from A1 to A4

tva/1,23/bn
bnc/2,24/vb
gzc/3,12/jb
hzf/1,56/hj

I only need the characters at position 5,6,7,8:

1,23
2,24
3,12
1,56

I would like to do the task with a vba-macro that selects cells A1-A4
and then shows only the 4 charakters. I think the vba MID-Function
Mid (string, start, length) would be the right tool. But I don“t know
how to write the makro.

Can anyone help?
Thanks a lot

Michael

Hi Frank

I need a vba-macro to extract the 4 characters because this macro should later be intergrated in a different macro
