If you have the numbers with actual ()- and spaces then search for them ()-
one by one and replace... If they are displayed with formatting then simply choose Number format without decimals.

Hi Jan,
Use this formula: =SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1," ",""),"-",""),"(",""),")","") i presume the number is in cell A1, this is basically a nested substiute formula to remove the characters (,),- and spaces. -- Kind Regards, Satti Charvak Only an Excel Enthusiast Noida, India "Sheeloo" wrote: If you have the numbers with actual ()- and spaces then search for them ()- one by one and replace...
