I want to eliminate all the rows that have data begging with an alphabet.
For eg:
A1 - T12345
A2 - 123
A3 - 456
A4 - BH1
A5 - BHV
Result:
123
456
Cleaning data
I want to eliminate all the rows that have data begging with an alphabet.
For eg:
A1 - T12345
A2 - 123
A3 - 456
A4 - BH1
A5 - BHV
Result:
123
456
A couple of questions
1/. Do You want to keep for example 123A?
2/. Are your numbers in number format or are they text?
Thanx for the quick reply
Data is in the text format, however, if u can share the resolution for both number format and text format,then it would be gr8 for me.
I woud like to keep rows that has numbers in it, no alphabets at all.
Hope this helps, awaiting response.
Try this (easier if your Data begins in A2)
In B2
=IF(ISNUMBER(A2*1),"","DELETE")
Drag/Fill Down
Filter on Column B = "DELETE"
Select the result and Delete > Rows
Remove the filter
Hope this helps

It' showing Delete against all cells. Please advise. if it has something to do with the data format.
Able to rectify the glitch, values in cell have a space on the right.
If you haven't resolved this, can you post a sample workbook?
Its working mate, what if I want to exclude a particular alphabet, I want all the numeric data and the one beginning wid "Q"
Same steps again, but use
In B2
=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(A2*1),LEFT(A2,1)="Q"),"","DELETE")
Hope this helps
Super genius.
Happy to have been of some help.
