Find formula

Sravan_Kumar

Hi Friends,

Do we have any special formulas for the below calculation.

@Sravan_Kumar 

 

Create additional Line item to find delimiters

 

Find LI = FIND(",",Old Value,1)

New Value = IF FIND LI = 0 THEN Old Value ELSE Left(Old Value,Find LI -1)

 

This should give you the results

Hi @Sravan_Kumar  - 

 

 

Create a new Line item(number format) and write a formula FIND(",", old)

Write the formula for new value  =   IF New Line item = 0 THEN old value ELSE LEFT(old value, New Line item - 1)

 

 

Hope it helps,

SUBSTITUTE() is also an option and that will allow for replacing multiple instances of the same character without something super complex.

But this doesn't work if something is present after comma.

Say,

5.0 ----> 50 

but using the formuls,

5.0 -----> 6
