How all.
I have a worksheet that I want to extract 7 characters from. Below is a sample of the first few rows that I'd need to look at for the specific locations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Truckee River Claim No. 303 (404) SUMMARY" "Decreed Owner: OWNER's NAME successor to Prior Land Holder's Name" Page No.: 35 & 44 Orr Ditch (303) Sullivan and Kelly Ditch (404) Acre Ft. cfs Acres Map: TR-087 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ While this is just text, we generally work off of the first 6 columns (pretty much std), the first two rows are merged, and this actually varies from workbook to workbook. What I want to extract would be the numbers- in this case, 303 and (404) Sometimes this will be more-- about 10 occurrences of 10 + characters-- most of the time it'll only be 3 characters. My goal is to extract these numbers, and rename a worksheet (insert those into the worksheet name) from SUM (some variation of sum, summary, etc...) to Sum (some basic variation thereof)-###, where the ### digits of interest. I expect more questions, so go for it. Thank you for your helps. Best. |
