Hi,
I'm trying to figure out a way to extract a certain number of letters/numbers from a partucilar cell.
For instance if I have the following line:

WHCND27364

I want to remove "WHCND27" and remain only with "364", but without using the =Right(X,3) function.

Is there a way to obtain this?

Many thanks!
Jonathan
