I have a price list with cells containing a value and unit. For example "11.28p/kWh". I need to extract the "11.28" and lose the "p/kWh" but need a way to cope with values that have 0, 1, 2 or 3 decimal places.
I would appreciate any formula able to do this.
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Excel 365: =--TEXTBEFORE(A1,"p/kWh")
Other versions: =--LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-5)
