Formatting Question
 

I currently have a cell containing the following formula.

=RIGHT("000"&(T2),3)

This out puts a field like this: 00A

What I need is A00. I tried =LEFT but that didn't work.

Thanks for any help

Formatting Question
 

What might T2 contain? Is it just a single letter? What do you want t
return if T2 is blank?

Possibly

=T2&"00"

if T2 contains only one lette

Formatting Question
 

=Left(T2&"000",3)

would be the equivalent that produces what you show.

If T2 is blank it would display 000

Hmmm..that is the trick. Sometimes it might contain A or B and others
it might be BL or 1.

Whatever it returns I need the characters on the left with the
appropriate blank spaces at the end so that it makes 3 spaces and/or
characters total.
