    Remove character

    Hi

    If you want to use a formula you can use the replace function

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    What that means is your first part is the cell reference, e.g. A1, second part is the starting point in the string, in your case 1, the number of characters to replace is 1, and finally new text will be "", a null value. This will reduce the cell value by the left character, leaving the remainder.

    Regards


    Jeff
