    Dropdown list - formule to get only upper and lower case letters?

    Dear all,

    I would like to make 2 dropdown lists where the last one depends on the previous dropdown list and the first dropdown list depends on an initial value.

    I kept the example a bit simple, but I'm facing numerous annoying characters like Char(10), spaces, numbers, underscore, ampersand, hyphen ... which are quite annoying in named ranges.

    Is there a formule that allows me to only capture the upper and lower letters and disregards all of the other characters?
    Perhaps ASCI signs from 60 to 90 and 97 to 122?

    My incomplete effort:

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =INDIRECT(CLEAN(MID(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A2;" ";""); "(";"");")";"");3;LEN(A2)-3)))


    Desired result:

    Category Area Category Group Category Name
    1. Rolling Stock
    (RST)
    1.1. Acquisition of Rolling Stock 1.1.1. Procurement of Rolling Stock
    =INDIRECT(RollingStock) =INDIRECT(AcquisitionofRollingStock)
    3. Information and Communication
    Technology
    (ICT)
    3.4. Datacenter 3.4.2. Storage & Back-up
    =INDIRECT(InformationandCommunicationTechnologyICT) =INDIRECT(Datacenter)

    Thanks and best regards,

    Bram
