Hi!

If the "LL" will always be in uppercase as in your example, you can make the
formula a little shorter:

=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"LL",""),RIGHT(A1,2),"00 ")*1

Thanks Biff! Although not as familiar looking...... (read - "new" to me
<g"), it makes sense.....
I will take a look at this too - just to learn!

| I am new to setting up Excel to fill out columns for me and need some
help,
| please? Not even sure if I need a macro or what.
| I have a column of data in the format(s)
| #LL#### or
| ##LL####.
|
| I need to pick up the first number(s), eliminate the Letters, then pick up
| the next 2 #'s, then change the last 2#'s to 0's (in a new column).
|
| Can anyone please give me some help on where I start or what I need to do?
|
| TIA
