Can anyone show me how to eliminate all but the last 8 digits in a cell? I need to do this for a column of cells down to the first empty cell. For example, I need to leave the last 8 digits in this string of text and numbers:
AAPL210319C00105000
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
Assume your data in Column A. In Column B, type =Right(A1,8) and then copy down.
