Good morning,
Can anyone please advise on the below 2 challenges.
First hurdle is to convert to date, original data uses US date format.
Second challenge is to extract the number from a string.
Thank you,

For your dates:
=DATE(--RIGHT(A2,4),--TEXTBEFORE(A2,"/"),--TEXTBEFORE(TEXTAFTER(A2,"/"),"/"))
For your numbers:
=--SUBSTITUTE(IFNA(--TEXTBEFORE(A1," "),A1),"GR","")

Or, all in one:
=DATE(--RIGHT(A2:A7,4),--TEXTBEFORE(A2:A7,"/"),--TEXTBEFORE(TEXTAFTER(A2:A7,"/"),"/"))
and:
=--SUBSTITUTE(IFNA(--TEXTBEFORE(A1:A32," "),A1:A32),"GR","")
Data-->Text to Colums-->Next-->Next-->Date-->MDY-->Finish
