Hi,

I am looking for 2 formulas to extract text that could be anywhere within cell A1.

B1 will always start with 'NCT*" and be 11 characters.

C1 will always follow "EudraCT Number: *" and be 14 characters.

057-08
536/2010
AC-055-302/SERAPHIN
EudraCT Number: 2007-002440-14
NCT00660179
NL20580.100.08
SERAPHIN
NCT006601792007-002440-14

I tried searching the board, but the examples I saw were alot more complex.
