    extracting only letter characters

    Hello. If I have a bunch of cells like this: 1243 Jimmy, 14567342 Ricardo, 1324 Billiam etc, is there a way I can write a formula that only returns the letter characters? Thanks.

    Re: extracting only letter characters

    You use 'text to columns' function from excel
    Or use this formula;
    =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(" ",A1,1))
