    Smile Formula to only return a number value in a column with mixed Alpha and Numeric values

    Hello everyone

    Could I have some help to construct a formula that will return the number part of a mixed value cell; and only if that cell starts with a number. Otherwise return "".
    I have tried this formula, but it only excludes the 0 value and not the cells beginning with alpha values.

    =If(D5>0,D5,"")

    Many, many thank yous to those with more expertise and patience than me.
