I need to remove the alpha characters, from an alphanumeric string. An example of what I have, is in column A and the results I want, are in column B.


A
B
1abcd
1
8.2b
8.2
13.12def
13.12
51ef
51

Any help is greatly appreciated.
 

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.
That formula then needs to perform the - operation 16 times, once for each of the 15 LEFT functions +1 on the lookup.
Sorry, disregard that post.
My own formula does the same thing with +0 on the left function.
