Column T has Serial Numbers of varying lengths all beginning with the letter S like examples below:
S4Y90765YA

I need to remove the letter S and leave the balance of the cell like examples below. Please help.

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.

If you litterally just want to remove the first character...

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-1)

Hope that helps..
