Default How do I extract part of a text in a cell?

I am copying option information from the CBOE website, which contains a
string of characters identifying the option expiry date, strike price, and
ticker symbol (e.g. 07 Jul 55.00 (BZHSK-E). I would like to pull out the
55.00


If each string value is always laid out as you showed it...

year<spacemonth<spaceprice<spacesymbol

then you can use Split to get at the piece you want. For example...

InfoLine = "07 Jul 55.00 (BZHSK-E)"
Price = Split(InfoLine)(2)
