How to indicate any text/letter value in Excel
Hi All,
I need to know if there is a way in excel to express the concept any letter value...basically I need to separate some text in which I have a variable number of numeric values first and then letters.
i.e.
123French
2323123Italian
The idea is to use the "find" formula first to find where the first letter happens to be.....however I don't know how to express that and please don't aske me to nest an enourmus series of or formula with all the alphabet
Thanks
Sergio
P.S.
The two parts have no space or any special value that I could use.
P.S.
Text to column won't work
