Copying first three characters of text in a cell
I need to concatenate text from two cells but only the first three characters
from one of the cells. Other than subtracting the last 5 characters, is there a simpler way? A1 is "ABC1" B1 is "XYZ RSTU" I need to display in cell C1 this ABC1-XYZ I've used this formula =A1&"-"&LEFT(B1, LEN(B1)-5) Thanks |
