Isolating Email addresses
I've got a list in excel that has email addresses, but each cell also has other information. There are thousands, and I don't want to edit each cell. Is there a formula that recognizes the address only /net, etc., or am I stuck editing each one out? Thanks for your time. -- H00tenanny ------------------------------------------------------------------------ H00tenanny's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=28287 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=478528 |

What does the data look like? Perhaps you can use the Data--Text to Columns
feature. ************ Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "H00tenanny" wrote in message ... I've got a list in excel that has email addresses, but each cell also has other information.

Do the email addresses in the text string have a space at the beginning and end of the address? If so it would be fairly trivial matter to edit them out using a VBA macro. If there was any unique character at the beginning and end of the address then a combination of two or three text slicing functions could achieve the same thing. If either of these apply, please say and no doubt a solution can be provided. HTH __ Richard Buttrey Grappenhall, Cheshire, UK __________________________ |

Isolating Email addresses
Thanks for your help. The Data Text funtion worked great! A typical cell would contain (Sherry Holt) (Jan 7 96), Score = 1.000" and some had < preceding the address and at the end with no spaces, but that was easy to remove using the find and replace with nothing function. Again, thanks, you've saved me loads of time! -- H00tenanny ------------------------------------------------------------------------ H00tenanny's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=28287 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=478528 |
