Extracting information
 

I have a document that I just need to extract specific information in and
build into a new document. Is there a way that I can extract than information
on a continous level. The info starts with the same first 3 letters but has
different endings? Any ideas??

Extracting information
 

=IF(LEFT(A1,3="XXX"),"Extract","Don't extract")

Replace cell reference with the appropriate cell reference and the three
characters with the appropriate characters. Then filter on the "Extract"
values and copy those filtered records where you want.
