Hello,
I'm trying to remove the last character in about 2,000 cells. Th
catch is that the last characters are all different,and those cell
have to be put into a formula after the character is removed.
Here is what I am doing
NOW: 0000034F
0000562G
0654200{

NEEDS TO BE: .0000034
.0000562
! .06542

I'm using the =VALUE("0." & a1) to turn it into the decimals, now
just need to get rid of those characters. Can anyone help??

~Thank
