Default How will I do Excel user-defined function to extract letters from string

Try the following macro

'------------------------------------------------------
Function ExtractNum(rCell As Range
Dim tmp
If Len(rCell.Value) 0 The
For tmp = 1 To Len(rCell.Value
Select Case Asc(Mid(rCell.Value, tmp, 1)
Case 97 To 122, 65 To 9
ExtractNum = ExtractNum & Mid(rCell.Value, tmp, 1
End Selec
Nex
End I
End Functio
'------------------------------------------------------
