Excel @right function
I am trying to extract numbers after the check and space in excel column so I can do a vlook up against the number from another spreadsheet.
For example I have a column that lists CHECK 668911192 and I need to only extract the number.
How is this done ?
Appreciate your help
Thanks

lion555 Let's say the text string is in A1, use this to extract only the numbers.
=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(" ",A1))

Simply create helper column with flash-fill function to extract only numbers.
Using Flash Fill in Excel (microsoft.com)
