    Remove nos not inside parenthesis

    Good Morning!

    What is the function or method to remove numbers that are not in parenthesis, from a cell? I have several thousand rows that I need to apply the function or method to.

    Example: A1 = 123456 (623456) Gaserd
    Desired answer: A1 = (623456) Gaserd

    Thank you,
    Jody
