I have a column of which each cell has a 3 letter prefex followed by 4 numbers.

How can I delete the prefex and leave the 4 four numbers, the whole column at one time?

Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
If your codes start in A1 then in B1 enter

and copy the formula down.
