    Re: I want some part in edition formula in cell

    Hi,

    Is this a string of text or a formula which results in 630?

    Re: I want some part in edition formula in cell

    Do you have the FORMULATEXT function in Office 365? I am presuming you do. If so, you can use that along with the LEFT, MID and RIGHT functions to extract the numbers.

    e.g. =RIGHT(FORMULATEXT(A1),3)

    will result in 290.

    OK - I've had fun trying to guess what your data looks like. How about posting a realistic sample with some expected outcomes?

    We receive goods many times from one supplier, and we record like =22+35+210+31+11, like that. After that we can get any special scheme for some of it. Like 2nd delivered 35 have 2% rebate, want to prepare other form.

    We have much more columns, so we dont want to create more columns for goods receiving. One of the reason is all are same price

    Can you put this onto an Excel sheet, WITH your expected results? I'm not clear what you need...

    The one called "show formulas in cells instead of their calculated results" needs to be unchecked, to be precise...

    I think Excel is meant to work it out from the contents of A3: 2% REBATE FOR 4TH DELIVERY

    Can I suggest that since you want to analyse a series of data values that you consider the way you are currently capturing and recording data. For any serious analysis you should collect data in a normalised 2 dimensional table. Once you have that then you can use Excel's various tools and functions to analyse it in many ways. This approach would be much simpler than jumping through hoops to interpret and analyse strings of varying lengths.

    Yes, I saw the sheet, But in my sheet values have "=", because that cell must have total value.

    You could do that. but you would need to be mad to want to do so. The formula is fairly complicated. But, if (in D2) you wanted to change it, you would have to replace the 3 references to C2 with the number 3.

    You really are overcomplicating this.

    Record 5 records for Toys referencing each with (in this case) the digits from 1 to 5. Then the solution is either an autofilter or a simple lookup function.
