    Question about RIGHT function

    I Have 1000+ SSN on a spreadsheet exported from payroll system
    I need to trim them down to the last 4 digits of each SSN
    I'm using =RIGHT(A1,4)
    How do I do this for ALL rows?
    I tried =RIGHT(A1:A1000,4) but that doesn't work.
    Any advice?

    Just put the formula in one cell and then copy it down.

    i.e.

    RIGHT(A1,4)
