I'm trying to create a formula that will pick out certain characters within a
text string, but the characters aren't a uniform length, nor are they always the same character number within the string. For example, I would like to pick out the dollar amounts in the following strings. Distributed 1 $91.00 2 $419.00 Distributed 1 $1,980.00 2 $2,519.00 Distributed 1 $94,181.00 2 $42,014.00 I can use the MID function to pick out the first amount, but I can't figure out how to pick out the last amount, since there are a differing number of characters on each line. Let me know if you have any secrets. I would even appreciate a macro that would accomplish the same thing. |
