HELP! I need to sort by the last 6 of a VIN# in a column
Vin Numbers have a 11 digits of letters and numbers, and then the last 6 are always numbers. I want to sort by these. I am just not sure how to write a custom list or would it be conditional formatting.
Thanks for any help you can provide-

You can use RIGHT function to extract the last 6 numbers into another column. e.g
=VALUE(RIGHT(A1,6))
Then sort the column.
