Hello, small problem:

Code:
Right(elem.innerText, Len(elem.innerText) - InStrRev(elem.innerText, " / "))

This successfully pulls right of the "/". How would I adapt to include the "/" as well?

Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
I presume those spaces arent meant to be there around the " / " in your code? You could just add 1 eg

Code:
Right(elem.innerText, Len(elem.innerText) - InStrRev(elem.innerText, "/") + 1)

or use mid which is a bit easier

Code:
Mid(elem.innerText, InStrRev(elem.innerText, "/"), Len(elem.innerText))

Code:
Mid(elem.innerText, InStrRev(elem.innerText, "/")[B][COLOR="#FF0000"], Len(elem.innerText)[/COLOR][/B])
The Mid function (in VBA) is even easier to use for the OP's request... you can leave off what I highlighted in red and it will still work the same... the Mid function returns out to the end of the text when the 3rd argument is omitted (I wish Excel's MID function did that).
