0 Comments

How to extract numbers from a string in Excel: You have been given a table of customer information and asked to extract only the numerical parts (phone numbers, customer IDs, ID card numbers, birth year, etc.) to a separate file for transactions or communication. How do you extract numbers from a large data table? Follow the steps below to learn how to do it.

For example, suppose we have a data table as shown in the image below. We need to extract the ID card number of each person. Since the data is not consistent, we cannot use basic character extraction functions like RIGHT, MID, LEFT. Follow the steps below to extract the numbers.

Step 1

First, use the Alt + F11 shortcut to open the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window. Then select the Insert tab on the toolbar. The scroll bar appears, select the Module option.

ExtractNumber = CLng(lNum)
End Function

Step 3
