    value in c14 is 9.6;20353.72;2020-10-05 00:00:00.0 & your first formula brings 20353.72;2020-10-05 00:00:00.0

    Re: value before ";"

    Ok Sorry,
    I've values in cell c1 9.6;20353.72;2020-10-05 00:00:00.0 & I need to get whatever the value before the first semicolon so the result should come in cell c2 9.6.

    Thanks a lot
