    Formatting a Cell

    Hello,

    I have a number that I need to get into a certain format and I cannot figure out how to do this. Here is my problem. I have Column A that is formatted as such 24010-B05. What this represents is a general ledger number and a branch number at the end. Is there any way to take this number and put it into this format: 24010-B05 = 524010. Basically I need just the last number to be in front of the 5 digit number to make it a 6 digit number. Thanks for all your help. This site is great.

    Another option

    =CONCATENATE(RIGHT(A1,1),LEFT(A1,5))*1

    or even

    =(RIGHT(A1,1)&LEFT(A1,5))*1
