Remove Plus Signs From Numbers

  • I have a list of numbers in Column A that I always copy into another sheet. The problem I have is that some of these numbers end in "+" and I can't use them when it has that. I have to go through and one by one take out the plus. I was wondering if it was possible to copy only the numerical values to a new column?


    Example


    Original What Im Looking For


    4 4
    56 56
    8+ 8
    5 5
    90 90
    2 2
    4+ 4
    45 45
    1 1
    67 67


    Thanks[hr]*[/hr] Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;[dl]*[/dl]Actually I just figured it out. I did a text to columns with a + sign as the separator and it worked.


    Thanks to all who looked at it.

    Perhaps try to remove first the +:
    Assuming data in A3
    in B3 =SUBSTITUTE(A3,"+","")

  • Re: Copy All Numerical Values From Column


    I was actually able to add a text to columns into my macro that separated the columns by a plus sign. This removed the plus sign and I havn't seen any problems yet.


    I'll try yours too just to see if it calculates it quicker as there are A LOT of rows for this to run through.


    Thanks for your help

    Give a chance to next formulaes:
    Assuming data in column A
    In column B: =SUBSTITUTE(A1,"+","")
    In column C: =LEFT(B1,FIND(" ",B1))*1
    In column D: =RIGHT(B1,LEN(B1)-FIND(" ",B1))*1
    Then Copy and special paste column C & D in themselves.
    Column B could be integrated in column C & D
