Hi,

Not looking for a Function.
  1. Need VBA to extract left characters before delimiter "." in active cell and call it ExL
  2. Need VBA to extract right characters before delimiter " - " in active cell and call it ExR
Got code below, but those are functions, don't need that:

VBA Code:
If InStr(txt, char) > 0 Then Extract_LString = Left(txt, InStr(txt, char) - 2)

If InStr(txt, char) > 0 Then Extract_RString = Right(txt, InStr(txt, char) - 4)
 
That does not pertain to the original post so please start a new thread.

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand

I appreciate your help!
Share what your learning the VBA is from, if you feel like it :)

Figured out the scrolling:

VBA Code:
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = Range(ExL & 1).Column
