    Post Numbers and text together in column

    Dear all,

    Could someone please help me to remove the texts, punctuation marks, i.e; hyphen's, slashes, colon etc from a particular column and get me only the numbers?

    I'm an accountant by profession. If i could do this task in a jiff, i could have saved some time for other works as well.

    Attached is the sample sheet for your kind reference.

    Please help

    The numbers that we see in Column C is very mandatory. These are the Receipt numbers and that's exactly what i need. I do not need these texts along with it....neither the punctuations..

    Thanks
    amey

    Hi amey and welcome to the forum

    Put this formula in D4 and pull it down. I think that is what you want.

    =LEFT(C4,FIND("/",C4)-1)
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.
