    Re: Find the latest price and lowest price out of formatted text

    I have the same question as Don. I settled on left most figures. Additionally I get AU $55.30 for minimum price in A4. The anticipated is AU $59.95.

    In the attached column D find this for the latest figure. It's the same one I posted in post #2 and does double duty as a helper in the min formula.
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =TRIM(LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(A2,CHAR(160)," ")),"Sold as a special offer ","")," ",REPT(" ",LEN(A2)),2),LEN(A2)))


    Then for the minimums two helper formulas ... columns E:F ...

    This cleans up and "standardizes" the strings.
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A2,CHAR(160)," "),"$","")),"Sold as a special offer","")),LEFT(D2,FIND(" ",D2)),"")
    This one locates the last "." in the standardized helpers.
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =LOOKUP(1E+306,FIND(".",E2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(E2)))))


    Then array enter this in G2 and filled down. If you aren’t familiar with array-entered formulas array enter means the formula must be committed from edit mode by simultaneously pressing and holding down Ctrl and Shift while hitting Enter.
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =LEFT(D2,FIND(" ",D2))&IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("$",A2)),"$","")&TEXT(MIN(--TRIM(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(LEFT(E2,FIND(".",E2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&F2)))+2)," ",REPT(" ",256)),256))),"#.00")
