    VB Code to find and delete and Truncate cell length

    Hello:

    Please refer to attached file.
    I need VB Code to do following.
    Go thru column C and delete non-numeric cells. (Delete "XYZ" and "CENETER")
    Go thru Column D and do following
    Delete all numeric numbers
    Delect "*" character
    Truncate cell content to 20 character.

    Let me know if you have any questions.
    Thanks.
