Macro ?
 

You can use a formula. If it is always letter number, then use

=LEFT(A1,1)

and

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-1)

If it is more complex, you can us

=LEFT(A1,MAX(ISNUMBER((MID(A1,ROW($1:$100),1)*1))* ROW($1:$100))+1)

and

=MID(A1,MAX(ISNUMBER((MID(A1,ROW($1:$100),1)*1))*R OW($1:$100))+2,99)

Hi

Is the letter always one character ?

Dim str As String
str = "G33"
MsgBox Mid(str, 1, 1)
MsgBox Mid(str, 2, 100)

No, it's actually a reference back to another worksheet cell.

Basically, I have a macro that is looking for a particular entry on
sheet, it is then taking that cell and entering the actual cel
reference "G33" for example in this particular cell. Later a differen
macro is going to use the "33" portion to color code certain cells tha
end in "33", but not the "G33" cell. ie. Range("A33:C33, F33") will b
colored a specific color..

Hi dok112

Try this with in A1 the value G33

Dim Num As Long
Num = Mid(Range("A1").Value, 2, 1024)
Range("A" & Num & ":C" & Num & ", F" & Num).Interior.ColorIndex = 3
