I have multiple cells around 200 having each cell text like below. I need only information starting with 1. up till 1. ends (Example: 1.A mounti... ...in disalignment. )

Following description includes:
1.A mounting system for supporting on a dental endosseous implant having a longitudinal implant axis is in disalignment.
2. A mounting system as device in claim 1, further comprising a fastener means for fastening the transmucosal member to the implant.
3. A mounting system as defined in claim 2 wherein the fastener means is a fixation bolt for screwing.
4. A mounting system as defined in claim 1 further comprising a fastener means for fastening the transmucosal member.
5. A mounting system as defined in claim 1, wherein the mounting system.
 

Excel Facts

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.
What about the one that has "1" but no period after it?

Anyhow, assuming that's a typo and you meant to put the period....

=TRIM(MID(A1,FIND("1.",A1)+1,1000000))

Try that out.

Thankyou, but only 1. text is required. Right now it is trimming text from 1. but showing rest of the data afterwards

Hi!

If I understand correctly what you want, then the Array Formula below can helps.

Use Ctrl+Shift+Enter and not just Enter to enter the formula:

=IFERROR(MID(MID(A1,FIND("1.",A1),8^9),1,SMALL(IFERROR(FIND(ROW($1:$99)-1&".",MID(A1,FIND("1.",A1),8^9)),8^9),2)-1),"")

=IF(LEFT(A1,2)="1.",LEFT(A1,FIND(".",A1,FIND(".",A1)+1)),"")

1. Is that all in one cell?

2. Could you give us a few more examples of the sort of data you might have and the expected results?


If post #5 does what you want, then there is no need to answer the above questions, but this should also produce the same results:
=IF(LEFT(A1,2)="1.",LEFT(A1,FIND(".",A1,3)),"")

Yes the provided information is in 1 cell and there are multiple cells having different information in same numbering format (1. 2. 3. and so on). In some cases cell information is starting with 1. and in some cases it is starting with text and then followed by 1. 2. .....
