I need a formula to extract the numbers from data in a cell:
Examples of data in cells:
G 622 ENTERTAINMENT ( I need to extract 622 )
D 6129 TOYS ( I need to extract 6129)
C 1039 Toddler TOYS ( I need to extract 1039 )
R 05 VEHICLES (I need to extract 5 )
All the cells have spaces before an alphabetical identifier, then a space ( it could be more than one in some cases ), then a number ( between 1 and 4 digits ), then a space and a description.

I'm looking for a way to extract the data after the first space in a string to after the first set of numbers (always 8 digits). The formula I'm using is not accurate since the number of words that appears between the first space to the first set of numbers changes.

Cell A1 contains 012345678 ** Customer of 987654321 **
Cell B2 contains 087654321
My formula =MID(A1,FIND("of",A1)+2,10) works perfect if it has a "customer of...". How to revise my formula that when it gets to cell B2 and if there is no "** Customer of ..." it would leave it blank or zero rather than #Value!?

My knowledge of functions is pretty limited, or negligible to be honest. I require a function to extract numbers from each cell in a selected range.
Eg.
cells contain the following data:
cell 1: xxxxxx 45,59
cell 2: x xxxxx xx 6,45,27
cell 3: x xxxx 28
were x represents text
I need to loop through each cell and extract each of the numbers and list them in a separate range. If applied to the above range of cells the function would show the below in the ouput range. Each number in its own cell.

27
28

I have got cell A1 containing this text string:
=IF(SUM('SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[852]C:R[856]C)=0,SUMPRODUCT('SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[826]C:R[830]C,
'SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[840]C:R[844]C,'SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[846]C:R[850]C),
SUMPRODUCT('SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[826]C:R[830]C,'SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[840]C:R[844]C,
'SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[846]C:R[850]C,'SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R[852]C:R[856]C))
*'SL-001 - AT-001-001'!R992C*R3C9
and I would like a macro that will extract the numbers between each instance of the letters R and C , i.e. 852, 856, 826 etc etc. in cells A2, A3, A4 respectively.

i have data stored like:
col1
XXXX1244 50
XXXX1519 60
XXXX1244 50
xxxxx1111 10
xxxxx1519 65
the last 4 caracters are numbers. I need to test these numbers and sum the corresponding values them in a single cell without adding new column(SUMIF like).
so in the above example I need to sum all ending at 1244 or 1519, therefore the sum showed in the single cell equals 225
to extract from a single cell: =VALUE(RIGHT(D8;4))
I tried to use an array formula but it seems to crash if a blank cell is in the array

I'm trying to extract all the numbers from the left of the delimiter ":" . They can occur once or more.
E.g. cell F2 contains BP2.2.1:40 BP2.2.1:50 BP2.2.1:60 BP2.2.1:70 BP2.4.1:80
and what i want as a result is : BP2.2.1 BP2.2.1 BP2.2.1 BP2.2.1 BP2.4.1.
I've tried =IFERROR(LEFT(F2,FIND(":",F2)-2), " ") but only displays 1 out of a possible 4 in the cell.

Here is a very simple workbook/sheet with some simple date arithmetic.
I keep getting the warning that there's a circular reference in C2.
Either I need to suppress the warning so vba loops can run or PREFERABLY I'd get rid of the "circular reference".
Run with Excel 2013.

I don't have to keep using the ridiculous Substitute() work-around when I need to grab cell text after the nth instance of a character. In doing data cleanup I'm constantly having to grab text between, say, the 4th space character and the 6th one. Since Search() doesn't have an instance parameter, I end up having to use the 'Substitute trick', since it's the only string function that does have one.
See below for a typical example of the convoluted formula I need, and another example of it if Search only had 'instance' available. Simplifies the formula quite a bit.
*Typical real example, here to find the word between the 4th and 5th spaces in A1:
"=MID(A1, SEARCH("^", SUBSTITUTE(A1, " ", "^", 4)),
SEARCH("^", SUBSTITUTE(A1, " ", "^", 5))-SEARCH("^", SUBSTITUTE(A1, " ", "^", 4)))
Fantasy, 'fixed' example after MS adds instance:
=MID(a1, SEARCH(" ", a1, [instance #4]), SEARCH(" ", a1, [instance # 5])-SEARCH(" ", a1, [instance # 4]))

I have the following type of info in A1,A2,A3...
Code:
nameGaryage40cityPittsburgheight190
age30height150
ameLindacityMichigan
citySan Jose
ameHarryheight180age50
My goal is to get as close as possible to this,so it will be easier to sort and manage
Code:
nameGaryage40cityPittsburgheight190
nameLindaage30cityMichiganheight150
nameHarryage50citySan Joseheight180
I can't use the "" sign as delimiter to separate them into different columns because the age,city,name and height fields are in random positions on different cells.The good thing is person's name will always come after "name" string, age is alwals followed by "age" string, so it cannot be like nameheight40Michigan180
I think the following would be the easiest method(not for me tho).If on B1 I had a formula that said "find the string "name" and write anything after it until you reach the next "" character".On C1 field I could have a formula "find the string "age" and write anything after it until you reach the next "" character.On D1 I would have the same for "height" string,then on E1 for city string.
My question is somewhat similar to this one
Extract A String Between Two Characters
Formula which outputs the data between 3rd and 4th instances of the "_" character.Can we substitute "3rd and 4th" with a specific strings like "age" or "height" ?
Code:
=TRIM(LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(MID(A1,FIND("|",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"_","|",3))+1,LEN(A1)),"_",REPT(" ",LEN(A1))),LEN(A1)))

I'm currently working on my masters dissertation and am using excel 2010.
Basically, I'm trying to generate a list of say, 1000 numbers within a range. I can already do this using the rand() function. However, I need excel to take each random number, apply it into a formula, and then list the answers in a seperate location. This would be easy to do if there was one simple function (which i could just insert into any adjacent cell). The problem is that each random number value is input into a table. The table, which has about 10 columns and 200+ rows, gives one final answer.
I'm sure there has to be a faster way than creating 1000 tables for each random number generated.
Let's say I have a list of 1000 random numbers in sheet 1. the function table is in sheet 2 and produces the answer in the same sheet, in a single cell. I'd like excel to use each random number generated, input it into the function table, attain the answer from the table, and list it in the cell next to the random number.

Suppose I have a column filled with numbers in fraction. And correspondingly I have a specific name for every 10 numbers. I want to find out which is the maximum among the 10. For this I could use the "MAX" function in excel. Similarly I have to find the maximum among the next 10 numbers. Since I have about 200 such numbers under 20 different names and eight such sheets (10 numbers per name), it becomes difficult to type the formula and select the range everytime. I would like to know if there is any shortcut for getting this highest number among the 10 numbers.
Eg.
Name Value Number
TU 489.662.272
TU 380.450.0379
TU 331.970.0475
TU 309.641.004
TU 300.890.1215
TU 288.840.0501

From this string I need to extract 797F only. Further complicating the problem is that its not always SAMSUNG it could be ABB CT797F-1 or KOMSATISU CT797F-1
I have implemented a function that can extract all the numbers, but can't think of how to extract 797F from the various different strings.
