Well, I appreciate the correction. I often read the question wrong--or
just do
something stupid.

But I've learned to save before anything that may cause trouble later. If
I
screw it up, I can edit|undo or close without updating.

(Which is a good thing to learn, too.)

Left, right. What's the difference???

So this becomes:
Select the range
edit|replace
what: *@
with: (leave blank)
replace all

And if the hyperlinks (if they existed) should be deleted:
hit alt-f11
hit ctrl-g
type this and hit enter:
selection.hyperlinks.delete

(or just use data|text to columns, <vbg. and choose to skip the field
that
should be deleted)

Dave: That will:
a) delete the domain name, which is what Rusty wants to keep
b) leave the hyperlink still on the cell, which I would think he
doesn't
want
Right? :)

I have a spreadsheet with about 1000 email addresses. All I want
from
those
email addresses is the domain name. Can anyone tell me a quick way
to
automatically delete all the text to the left of the @ sign in the
email
address? I can do it manually, but that's awfully boring not to
mention
time
consuming.

Thanks.
