    can i write a macro to truncate alpha-numeric data?

    I have imported a bunch of data into excel, however, the data I have has a
    bunch of extra characters at the end that I don't need. Can I write a Macro
    to delete a set number of characters off of each cell that I run the macro on?

    This is the key code:
    a = Replace(ActiveCell.Value, "s", "")
    the rest is up to you!
    Best regards,
