    Separate numbers embed in a text string into a new column or cell

    I have an 8000 row sheet, in one column there are variations like"

    AC
    A1
    2C
    AC1
    A2B

    The only info I need is the numeral, which appears in many possible locations in the string. How do I get just the numeral out into a new column? Also if there is no numeral I want a blank cell

    perhaps..

    =IFERROR(LOOKUP(99^99,--("0"&MID(A1,MIN(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"0123456789")),ROW($1:$10000)))),"")
    Life's a spreadsheet, Excel!
