Modify cell contents

I have many part numbers that end with |01. I want to delete the |01 in each
cell without doing them individually. They are all in the same column. The
numbers look like this; 0993616|01, 4657-02|01, 408-Q|01.
Thanks

Select all cells in question.

Select the right-most column and "do not import"(skip).

Finish
