Default remove convert/extract the number from'12345.56; ie remove ' sign

Hi

With the data in A1, enter in B1
=A1*1 or =A1+0

That will convert the Text of the number to a numeric value

If you have a large range of data to convert, type 1 into a blank cell
somewhere on your sheet. Copy that cell.
Now, mark the range of cells with text numbersPaste SpecialMultiply
