I'm sure this is easy for you guys!
How would you extract some info from a string.
I have some codes and would like to strip the first two characters off the
string.
Here is the example:
What I have: NM055
What I need: 055
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
 
Assuming that the first value is in A1 you could use the following formula:

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-2)

Or if the lenght is always the same you can use:

=RIGHT(A1,3)
 
Kevin: thanks it worked great!
