    Smile formula help

    I want to be able to add a column with mixed numerals. For example: The sum
    of A2:A34 with the values in the cells being 1B or 1F or so. What would the formula be?

    RE: formula help

    ASAP Utilities, a free add-in available at www.asap-utilities.com has a
    feature that will remove all alpha-characters from cells, leaving only the
    "number" parts.......

    That works, but, I need to keep the values in the cells, only add the numbers. ASAP Utilities is awesome by the way.

    Copy your data over to a helper column and run the routine on that
    column.....this will keep your original data intact........

    I'm using the following formula with a helper column, now I'm not able to add the helper column.


    =LEFT(MID(A1,MIN(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"0123456789")),MAX(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},"0123456789"&A1))),SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(--MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&(LEN(A1)))),1))))

    Re: formula help

    I don't understand why you are using the formula.........I thought you just
    had mixed text and numerical values in column A and wanted to just add the
    numerical parts...............be that the case, then just copy and
    paste-special-values your column A over to a helper column and then use ASAP
    Utilities to delete all the alpha-characters in that helper column then add
    the numbers that are left.....
