Extracting a Part of a Formula as Text
Hello, I have what I think may be an easy question. I am trying to extract part of the formula into a new cell.
In Cell A1 in Sheet2, the formula is =Sheet1!B2. In Cell A2,Sheet2, I need a formula that will return the last 2 characters in the formula "B2". Is this possible without VBA? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You. |

Extracting a Part of a Formula as Text
=RIGHT(A1,2) entered in Sheet2 A2
Or if you want, dispense with A1 formula and enter just =RIGHT(Sheet1!B2,2) Gord On Wed, 6 Jun 2012 12:23:39 -0700 (PDT), cardan wrote: Hello, I have what I think may be an easy question.

Hi Gord, Thank you for the reply. Your formula returns the value in the cell. I am looking for it to return the last 2 characters in the formula. RIGHT, LEFT, MID, FIND, deal with texts within the cell value(output). I need it to look at the "text" of the formula.

Extracting a Part of a Formula as Text
One way to do without VBA is to first do an edit, replace, and replace
all equal signs in your range with "zz=". This makes the formulas text, then you can use the Right() function to return characters. =Right(a1,2). Then copy, paste special the Right() formulas to make them values. Lastly, Change all "zz=" back to just "=". The search and replace needs to look at formulas vs values. VBA is easier :)) Robert Flanagan Add-ins.com LLC http://www.add-ins.com Productivity add-ins and downloadable books on VB macros for Excel On Jun 6, 11:20*pm, Gord Dibben wrote: You're right.........I missed your request.
