Hi Guys,

i have postcodes:

FK1 1UV
G1 3UV
KY12 3UV

I need a formula which will remove the last 2 characters.

Ive tried playing around with left and right formulae but to no avail.

any help would be much appreciated

Thanks x

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
