    Pull just Number data from cell with numbers and text

    Hi there.

    I have a cell that has the following in it.

    "1-5 pounds: $4.39"

    How do I reference in another part of the spreadsheet ONLY the 4.39 part of what is in that cell?

    hi snuffnchess. you probably need to give a few more samples in order to see a pattern. right now, what i see is that you want the numbers after the dollar sign:
    =--MID(A1,FIND("$",A1)+1,100)

    I tried doing what you suggested and received an error.

    Uploading a sample sheet of what I am trying to.

    Raw Data Entry tab will do some calculations there..... Sheet 2 want to look nice and pretty like what you see here.Book2.xlsx

    snuffnchess, Good evening.

    Try this one:
    Suppose your data is at A1

    =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("$",A1,1))*1

    Is this what you want?
    I hope it helps.
