I am trying to find a formula/macro to extract kanji character only from a cell. For example:

I want to remove Hiragana, Katakana from the Source sentence and display only Kanji characters in the Destination column.

Thank you if anyone could help me.

I often use the website Kanji extractor to extract but It only works on individual sentence, and extract kanji from multiple sentences is time consuming.

Standard characters codes (according to VBA functions Asc & Chr) start from zero up to 255​
but extended characters codes (AscW & ChrW) start from -32768 up to 65535.​
So if you find out the Kanji codes range …​

Maybe another way if by chance Kanji & Hira / Kana are not in the same subset​
but to give it a try I need a workbook attachment with some cells with only Kanji, with only Hira and with only Kana characters​
and at least one cell mixed, you can share a link of the workbook on a files host website like Dropbox …​
