Try this...
=LOOKUP(99^99,--("0"&MID(A1,MIN(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"0123456789")),ROW($1:$10000)))) Courtesy of:*Ron Coderre
1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

hi fdibbins

cheers colin
Try this one
assuming codes are in A1
Place formula in column V1 and copy down
=LOOKUP(1E+100,--RIGHT(A1,{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0}))

hi alkey
that's better thanks only problem I enter in cell and pull down but will only do 2 rows although formula enters in other rows. they say value
cheers colin
I suggest you upload a sample spreadsheet with about 10-15 rows of data so we could figure our a solution for you.
To upload a file click on Go Advanced at the bottom of your screen then click on PaperClip icon and Add Files, Select File, locate your file and click Open then click Upload and click Done
hi alkey
formula in w and is looking up column b

Please see attached file with your codes extracted in Column WOriginally Posted by cfinch100
I used array formula
=NPV(-0.9,,IFERROR((MID(B4,256-COLUMN(A:IV),1)%),""))
...confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see curly braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer. Press F2 on that cell and try again.
hi alkey
that's great many thanks,have not got the foggiest what it means at the minute
cheers colin
