Hi all
I thought I had this and I'm sure it's really simple but I can't seem to think of the solution
I need to extract the name only (drop the numbers at the end) so I have
Simon1 = Simon
Steve4 = Steve
I had the following formula =LEFT(A2,LEN(A2)-1) but this then fell apart when I came across Alan12
There is no space after the name, I haven't come across a name with three digits yet ie Simon100 but if the formula can be future proofed that would be ideal.
Any help on this is most appreciated as always.
