changing text to numerals
Is there a quick and easy way of changing numbers enter as text (i.e. one,
two, three) to numerals. I have a whole column of numbers entered in text form that I need to convert! Thanks |

What is the "range" of the the text i.e. is it simply "one"," two ","three"
or [for example) "one hundred and tweny four"? "JRD" wrote: Is there a quick and easy way of changing numbers enter as text (i.e. one, two, three) to numerals. I have a whole column of numbers entered in text form that I need to convert! Thanks |

Use VLOOKUP:
for example, in cols C & D enter: one 1 two 2 three 3 four 4 five 5 six 6 seven 7 eight 8 nine 9 ten 10 and in B1 enter: four then the following formula: =VLOOKUP(B1,C:D,2,0) will return the number 4 -- Gary's Student "JRD" wrote: Is there a quick and easy way of changing numbers enter as text (i.e. one, two, three) to numerals.
