MS Office Forum / Excel / Worksheet Functions / August 2006Have a list of items, 285, 285-A, 36-B, 23-D, 36 and need to sort
Have a database and need to subtotal by a column that has no set number of characters, some with "-" and a letter after, some just whole numbers. I want to sort by the whole number and ignore the "-". Ideas? Hi Challenged, on an auxiliar column use this formula (assuming that the list are in column D) =if(iserror(find("-",d7)),d7,left(d7,find("-",d7,1)-1)&right(d7,len(d7)-find("-",d7))) sort by this column hth  Signatureregards from Brazil Thanks in advance for your feedback.
