    Replace function start num to any value?

    Hi,

    The output cells in excel file can be certainly done by other functions but I have used ISNUMBER and SEARCH. It works almost in every situation but "start num" in replace function is causing incorrect output.

    Hi,

    Re your PM
    I can't see anything that looks like personal information in the file.

    Our general policy is to leave attachments since it sets the context for the question and may be useful for others.

    Let me know which information is personal.

    I've removed your name from the File Properties and re-uploaded the file.
