so ive tried using the formula
To remove °C from 10 °C for example

=LEFT(E10,LEN(E10)-SUM(LEN(E10)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(E10,{"A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H"},""))))

In an attempt to remove it but i get

10.0 °

Theres still a degree remaining, how do i completely remove this?

Why can't spreadsheets drive cars? They crash too often!
Welcome to the forum.

Why don't you just use =trim(SUBSTITUTE(E10,"°C",""))

Just a thought, could the cell Number Format have the degree symbol in it? Format Cells, Number Format, Custom
EDIT...just re-read the post, and realised this is not the issue :)
