    Take cell with text and number and multiply with number

    I have a 2 columns in an Excel dataset. For example one line from a dataset:

    F8 = ND (0.005)
    N8 = 0.0012

    I need to extract the number, "0.005" in F8 which is in text format and multiply it with the number, "0.0012" in N8 and output this in AD8. How do I do this, without changing the format of F8?

    I need this urgently, please help!

    Thx,

    Sami
