Help to create a formula for replace a variable with a number into a cell

[imifarma]

Hi,

i want to create formula for column C, when the x in column A {"EUR":"x"} take the value of column B

[Sam Capricci]

here are various ways...
=IF(LEFT(RIGHT(A1,3),1)="x",B1,"")
or
=IF(MID(A1,9,1)="x",B1,"")
or
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("x",A1))=TRUE,B1,"")
The first two depend on the format being pretty much the same, the left/right depends on the x always being in three spaces from the right end.
The mid needs the length to be the same as the format you showed in your workbook.
The last, isnumber/search will work if the format varies.
