Need to find all 9-digit numbers
In a single column, I need to be able to find all nine-digit numbers.
All the numbers are different, but they all have nine digits. It seems like I could do this in Word, but I can't figure out how to do it in Excel. Thanks! |

You can use wildcard characters so you would type ????????? (9 ?'s) into the Find What box; and also select <match entire cell contents under Options. --ron Ron, thanks! I figured that was the only way to do it. I wanted to know if I could search specifically for nine *digits* because nine letters also gets found. Thanks again! |

Non-VBA solution
=AND(ISNUMBER(A1),LEN(A1)=9) entered in B1 and double-clicked to copy down. Will return true or false.
