Little-Miss Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Is there a way of getting rid of the first 2 digits from a set of numbers? like i have 001234, 005678, 009101, 003242. I need to get rid of those first 2 0's from about 90 different figures. Find and replace would get rid of any like "001001". Is there a wildcard i can use or sommat?
sdc Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Can you format the cells as numbers? That should remove leading zeros.
Little-Miss Posted January 16, 2012 Author Posted January 16, 2012 The right function works great....but how do i do it on multiple cells as a1:a10 doesnt seem to work lol!!
clareq Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Put =Right(A1, 4) in A1 then drag down so you get =Right(A2, 4) etc. Alternatively, if they are all 6 digit numbers and all have the two leading zeros you could format the cells as custom type 0000. 1
