Today our focus is on the RIGHT function, which is designed to return a specified number of characters from the rightmost side of a string. Like other Text functions, RIGHT is very simple and straightforward, nevertheless it has a few unobvious uses that might prove helpful in your work. Continue reading

Example : Name / Full name 123456789
how do i get the name , full name , and the number in different coloumns , thankyou .
Hi!
You can find the examples and detailed instructions here: Split string by delimiter or pattern, separate text and numbers. You can also use the new TEXTSPLIT function to split the text into cells.
Hi thanks for the clear explanation! I am trying to use the LEFT and RIGHT functions in conjunction with each other that concatenates the number of characters specified in Data Cell 02 from the left and right ends of the content in Data Cell 01.
data cell 1:
12abcd12
data cell 2:
2
Hi!
If I understand your task correctly, try the following formula:
=LEFT(A1,A2)&RIGHT(A1,A2)
For more information, please read: Combine text strings, cells and columns.
hi i please help me get the right formula:
ex.25,00
=RIGHT(A1;2)
i used the following formula: =RIGHT(A1,2) and the result was 25
?????
Thank you so much!
Hi!
If a number is written in A1, then this is 25. You use the "Number" format in the cell. You can convert number to text using the TEXT function in the format you need.
For example -
=TEXT(A2, "0.00")
Is there a way to use conditional If...then statements within a Right formula? For instance, I have a series of numbers that I would like to sort by the last number, not necessarily the last digit, because some numbers have a letter (or two) at the end, ie 1234A, 43353CC, 67890, etc. So they should be sorted in descending order according to 4, 3, and 0, but because the position of the last number changes, can't use a simple formula. How would I do this?
Hello!
To extract the last digit from text, you can use the RIGHT function and these guidelines: How to extract number from the end of text string.
=RIGHT(RIGHT(A2, LEN(A2) - MAX(IF(ISNUMBER(MID(A2, ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A2))), 1) *1)=FALSE, ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A2))), 0))),1)
I have a sentence mail.google.com, mail.yahoo.com... in column
I want to replace with mail_google.com, etc.
Hi!
To find and replace text in a cell, use the SUBSTITUTE function:
=SUBSTITUTE(A1,"mail.","mail_")
This should solve your task.
If I have common.annualRevenu.test, bdf.annualRevenu.test
to -- > common_annualRevenu.test, bdf_annualRevenu.test
then how it works?
Please.
Hello!
To replace characters in text, use SUBSTITUTE function.
=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".","_",3),".","_",1)
Hope this is what you need.
I could use some help please. How can I extract all characters to the right of the last pipe and space even when some strings have 1 or multiple pipes?
Example 1: Automotive/RV | Compasses - Magnetic,Marine Navigation & Instruments | Compasses,Marine Navigation & Instruments | Safety
Result 1: Safety
Example 2: Marine Navigation & Instruments | Safety
Result 2: Safety
Hello!
If I got you right, the formula below will help you with your task:
=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-SEARCH("#",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|","#",LEN(A1) - LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|",""))))-1)
I figured it out from the download example:
=RIGHT(E16,LEN(E16)-FIND("$",SUBSTITUTE(E16,"|","$",LEN(E16)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(E16,"|",""))))-1)
Hi there!
thanks a bunch for your help.
I have this text on A1:
10.1.4.81'
I have this text on A2:
10.1.20.234
In need to figure out the position of the first "." starting from the RIGHT.
So I am expecting the results:
3
4
I cannot make it :(
Much appreciated,
Josu.
Hello!
Replace the last "." to "#" using the SUBSTITUTE function.
The formula below will do the trick for you:
=LEN(A1)-SEARCH("#",SUBSTITUTE(A1,".","#",LEN(A1) - LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""))))+1
This should solve your task.
I need a formula that can convert text in the format 2/15/2022 2:16:09 PM to date and time dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm [gives 15-Jan-2022 14:16] and should be able to work correctly even where the date provided is 12/31/2022 2:16:09 PM still in the same format [should give 31-Dec-2022 14:16]
Hello!
Try this formula:
=DATE(MID(A2,SEARCH("/",A2,SEARCH("/",A2)+1)+1,4), LEFT(A2, SEARCH("/",A2,1)-1), (MID(A2,SEARCH("/",A2)+1, SEARCH("/",A2,SEARCH("/",A2)+1)- SEARCH("/",A2)-1)))+ MID(A2,SEARCH(" ",A2)+1,20)
We have a ready-made solution for your task. I'd recommend you to have a look at our Text To Date Tool. It parses over 500 combinations representing dates in text format and converts them to regular Excel dates.
HI,
do you know of a good way to extract a word or phrase from a cell containing many words? i'm trying to extract "ticker" or "hero" or "hero 2" or "sidekick" using a formula so we know the location of the message. i tried doing a search function but i could only go two deep due to the errors.
=IFERROR(IF(SEARCH("sidekick",A1)>0,"sidekick","no"),IF(SEARCH("hero",A1)>0,"hero","no"))
header|click|ticker Take 10% off orders $129+ -- i'm trying to extract just "ticker"
homepage|click|hero C2002-ECOM @ $99 -- i'm trying to extract just "hero"
homepage|click|hero 2 Disaster Prep -- i'm trying to extract just "hero 2"
homepage|click|sidekick The BEST Deals This Month -- i'm trying to extract just "sidekick"
Hello!
Using the formula, you can extract the first word after the last separator "|" :
=LEFT(MID(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|","#", LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|",""))), SEARCH("#",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|","#",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|",""))))+1,100), SEARCH(" ",MID(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|","#",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|",""))), SEARCH("#",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|","#",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|",""))))+1,100))-1)
I have a cell that includes the following (as an example) #14 Wisconsin at #3 Illinois.
I want to extract the state names into different cells. Is successfully isolated "Wisconsin" into a cell using your page on MID and SEARCH ("=MID(A3, SEARCH(" ",A3)+1, SEARCH(" ",A3, SEARCH(" ", A3)+1)-SEARCH(" ",A3)-1)" .
I am struggling to isolate "Illinois". I was trying to use the RIGHT LEN AND FIND functions in combination to no avail.
Any suggestion
Hi!
To extract the last word from the text, use the formula:
=RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(A3," ","@",LEN(A3)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A3," ",""))), LEN(A3)-FIND("@",SUBSTITUTE(A3," ","@",LEN(A3) - LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A3," ",""))),1))
I hope my advice will help you solve your task.
I thought for a moment it worked, but I failed to anticipate something that complicates this.
In some cases what I am extracting is two words. For example #11 Texas at #42 Oklahoma St resulted in just "St" when I want " Oklahoma St" and for #7 Kansas at #19 W Virginia it resulted in just "W" when I need "W Virgnia"
This solution results in only the St being extracted from Oklahoma St - is there a way to tell excel that I need everything after the last space before the name.
Another suggestion is appreciated. It is so close.
Hi!
I wrote this formula based on the description you provided in your original comment. If you gave the correct description of the problem, time would not be wasted.
Try the following formula:
=MID(A1,SEARCH(" ",A1,SEARCH("#",A1,LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"#",""))))+1,50)
Hi All,
I need to remove the first two digits from my excel cells if the length of the characters in greater than 10, i.e. I have cell phone numbers and the I want to remove the country code 91 from the cell phone numbers. I know the RIGHT Formula in excel =RIGHT(A1, LEN(A1)-2). But I need to use it with IF condition. I am trying this but it is not working. Can someone please help: =IF(LEN(A1>10) RIGHT (A1, LEN(A1)-2))
Hi!
Please check the formula below, it should work for you:
=IF(LEN(A1)>10,RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-2),A1)
Almost there for me, i just need help please, im trying to get the 6 characters that appear after the second to last backslash.

By the way, I used CONCATENATE(A1,",",A2,"," so on and so forth. However, if cells are empty it displays a comma.
Something like this
125306920, 125298912,125297627,,,,,,,,,,
Hi Everyone,
Good day to all! I don't know what to use or how to use the code. But what I need is put a comma after every 9th number.

125298912
125297627
125300893
125311521
125306307
And if i use CONCATENATE i get this result 125306920125298912125297627125300893125311521125306307. Please help.
Thanks a lot!
Hello!
To combine delimited text, use the TEXTJOIN function. Read more in this guide.
I hope I answered your question.
Good day! TEXTJOIN doesn't seem to work in 2013, if it's a plugin/addin i'm not allowed to download it either. :(
Hi,
Unfortunately, in Excel2013 you can use either the CONCATENATE function or the VBA macro.

11 = 2017-2018
111 = 2018-2019
1111 = 2019-2020
only the last character. I know how to extract the (1,11,111,111 with this function =RIGHT(A2,LEN(A2)-SEARCH("-",A2))) but I do not know how to replace those values according to its year equivalent.
I need to substitute the rightmost character so that my column will sort properly:
if rightmost ="a", make it ".1"
if rightmost ="b", make it ".2"
I've tried everything but I don't get the result I need. Please help.
Hello
Here is the formula that should work perfectly for you:
=IF(RIGHT(C1,1)="a",REPLACE(C1,LEN(C1),1,".1"), IF(RIGHT(C1,1)="b",REPLACE(C1,LEN(C1),1,".2")))
Hope this is what you need.

Hello!
I have a text in a cell. Sometimes this text has at the end one empty space (it is visible only if I enter in the cell and go with the cursor to the most right of the text in the cell). I would like to use the right function (or any other function if feasible) in order to take this empty space out of the text in the cell (however the tricky part is that the formula should work only if there is a space in the end of the text, if it is a symbol it should not change the text. Also the formula should not delete other empty spaces within the text, only the empty space at the end of the text). Thanks!
Hello Ivan!
If I understand your task correctly, the following formula should work for you:

Hello! You can use regular expressions and the user-defined function RegExpExtract to extract numbers from text by pattern. You can find the examples and detailed instructions here: How to extract substrings in Excel using regular expressions (Regex).
The formula below will do the trick for you:
=RegExpExtract(A1, "(\d+)(?!.*\d)")
I recommend paying attention to the Regex tool. You can find, extract, compare, delete, or replace strings that match the regular expression pattern you enter.
Help Please, this is eating my brain.

I have set of alphanumeric employee ID, like 00PTPL-001 next will be 00PTLP-00101, length of alphanumeric ID is not same of all. From this ID I need to extract ID by removing first two zeroes and last two digits if added with employee ID. Unable to use MID function, because both sides of colon text has to be extracted. Kindly help with one dynamic formula to remove leading and trailing unwanted digits and texts.
Hi,
this formula did not work for me. the formula brought the same text back. no change. any idea why?

Hi,
I'm using Right and Left functions to get the first and last names on a cell, they are separated by comma. The solution doesn't bring up the total number of values before and after the comma i.e. for the full name "Soberado,Veronica"
The Left function (without -1 at the end) comes as "Soberad" and if I place the "-1" to get the position just before the comma, then it comes as "Sobera".
The Right function comes as "eronica" (missing the V).
This is all part of a bigger equation where I am doing a lookup to find the Full Name in the array and then I separate the name in First and Surname, so not sure if these equations are able to work together or not. See below:
=RIGHT(INDEX(Mob_Database,MATCH($F$15,Mob_Database[Staff_No],0),6),SEARCH(",",Mob_Database[Title]))
I'm a beginner using Excel, so would really appreciate some advice and provide some potential explanation of why this is not working.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi if someone could help,
If I have several domains but I get duplicate but different tld (.com, .net, .org, .fr, etc)
what formula can I use to get the tld only ?
Hi Loris,
Is my understanding correct that you want to get only .com, .net, .org, .fr, etc. ? If so, you can use the following formula to extract everything that comes after a dot, including a dot itself:
=IFERROR(RIGHT(A2,LEN(A2)-SEARCH(".",A2)+1), "")
Where A2 is the cell containing the original domain.
I'm using the right and left formula, to separate a number with a coma into to numbers, example:
CELL D18 = 10.50
left cell formula - =LEFT(D18,2) = 10,
the right cell formula =RIGHT(D18,2) = .5
How can I tell the formula to count "0" as part of the number? Taking into account that not all the number's in cell D18 have "0"'s (ex: my D18 cell can be 10.85, in this case the right formula works perfectly).
Thank you,
Carolina
How do I extract the last 2 digits from a date and also add two digits to make an actual date? For example, I was given 925085/15, I need to extract the 15 and include 20 in front of the 15.
I used this formula =RIGHT(A4,2)&"20" and I got 1520 instead of 2015?
Your assistance is appreciated.
hello,
I need your help. I want to extract the numbers inside the brackets from the following:
Access Point 300mb TP-Link WA855RE Range Extender [310575] × 1
Any ideas? I cant figure out the right formula.
Thanks
Hello, Olina,
Thank you for contacting us.
If we understand your task correctly, the formula below should work for you:
=IFERROR(LEFT(RIGHT(A1, LEN(A1)- SEARCH("[",A1) - LEN("[") + 1),SEARCH("]", RIGHT(A1, LEN(A1)- SEARCH("[",A1) - LEN("[") + 1))-1), "")
Alternatively, you can use our Extract Text tool to derive the necessary part of your cell in a few clicks.
Hilyn:
Is the data in Text format or Number format?
If it is in Text try this: =MID(A1,5,2)
This will return the last two characters as text. If it is formatted as a number and needs to be returned as a number then first format it as text and try:
=ABS(MID(A1,5,2)) or =ABS(RIGHT(A1,2))
I can't figure out how to return the last two digits of the number with the trailing zero.
hi i please help me get the right formula:
ex. A1=958.30
i want to copy only the 2 decimal digits which is 30
i used the following formula: =RIGHT(A1,2) and the result was .3
how do i include the "0" ?
Thank you so much!

Gary:
Because I can't see any pattern to the structure of your data, it seems you'll have to handle some of the separation process "By Hand". In other words I don't see any option but for you to clean this data up.
Highlight the cell that contains the data.
Then from the Data tab select Text-to-Columns.
Then click the Delimited button then next.
Then click the Spaces button then next.
Then General then Finish.
Now your data is in separate cells. Problem will be the same type of info is not in the same columns.
You'll have to move the same types into the columns by hand.
If you need to put the name state and zip into one cell you'll need to concatenate them into one cell.

I want to generate a formula for saving a number to a particular bit column, my table has 9 columns 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 if user input value 20 it should be save in bit 2 column, if user enter value 75 in cell it should be save to column no 7. So guys please suggest me solution and yes i am totally newbie to excel so please give me exact formula to do so.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for your response Doug
I am using the substitute formula as part of my csv editing arsenal and part of your suggestion to complete the csv :)
But i didn't explain myself correctly i dont think... so in fear of miscommunicating my issue again here is an example.
(Side note) The final csv file must have a heading in cell A1 and all the rows must conform to the standard of the first line: Cell A1 looks like this: lot_number,title,description
This is an example of 1 line of text as it is when i get it: 001,1,2013 CK61FXGP NISSAN MICRA 1.2 VISIA+ AUDIO 5-DR (GREY)(132223 kms)
This is what it needs to look like for the csv end result:
1,2013 CK16XFGP NISSAN MICRA 1.2 VISIA+ AUDIO 5-DR ,(GREY) (132223 kms)
90% of the lines have an open bracket which is the start of the description so i use find and replace to find the first ( and replace it with ,( which is simple enough to get my second comma.
However some lines don't have a description i.e. no open bracket, this is an example of what they would look like: 001,1,2013 CK16XFGP NISSAN MICRA 1.2 VISIA+ AUDIO 5-DR
The part im not getting right is to find all the rows (the list is growing... now up to 400 rows per csv) that don't have the open bracket and add a comma at the end of those lines.
But i'm not sure how to find cells that don't have 2 commas and add a comma to those that only have 1.
Maybe im not looking at it right... hopefully i have explained nicely this time :)
There may be other methods, but this is how I would do it.
I would start by taking the comma off the end of the data so that the data would have the same structure.
Then apply one procedure to all the data.
To get to that point you just need to do some adding and subtracting in a helper column’s cell. Like this:
First, in an open cell, for example, in cell B1, enter =SUBSTITUTE(A1, ",", "", 2)
This should remove the second occurrence of the comma and leave the other comma in place.
Copy this formula down the list to the end of the data.
Now, all the cells have the same structure with one comma in the data, none at the end.
Second, in a new column say cell “C1”, enter =B1&","
This enters a comma at the end of the text from B1.
Then copy down this formula to the end of the data.
When you finish, there is one comma in the data and one comma at the end of the data in column C.
Lastly, you may want to copy the completed data into a new sheet.
If so, copy the data, then in another sheet use “Paste Special – Values”.
This will copy all your data with just one comma in the data and one comma at the end ready for a CSV.
Hi Ablebits team
I work with excel sheets with up to 300 lines of different text in 1 column and need to create a comma delimited csv file which requires a minimum of 2 commas in each line.
Some lines don't have the 2nd comma at the end of the text, how do i go about adding a comma in the cells that are missing the 2nd comma?
Essentially i just need to fine all the cells that are missing a comma at the end of the text and add it in but i haven't a clue how.

Hi, I have a form in excel which shows a value in a cell of 806.73 (example in field A1).
I want to to show each digit in a separate filed i.e 8 goes into A1, 0 into B1, 6 into C1 etc.
I tried to use the =LEFT(RIGHT(A1,1),1) for the A1 value, =LEFT(RIGHT(B1,2),1) for the B1 value and so on. I need to allow for a monetary value of the following points nnnnnnnnnn.nn
The problem I have found is that if configure each field (B1, C1, D1 etc) upto a max of 10 and the value shown in A1 is nnn.nn then the values shown in A8 for example is shown as the last point which in this example would be '8' but I need to return a blank
Any help would be helpful
Hello,
If I understand your task correctly, please try to do the following:
1. Supposing that your cell A1 contains a value of 806.73;
2. Enter the following formula in cell B1:
=IF(COLUMN(A1)<=LEN($A$1),RIGHT(LEFT($A$1,COLUMN(A1)),1),"")
3. Just select the cell where you've entered the formula and drag the fill handle (a small square at the lower right-hand corner of the selected cell) to the right.
Hope this will help.
I am using the following formula to produce a number that is in turn used to produce a list of items 1 - 20 for 131 staff.
staff list N$17 = 131 (number of staff)
Staff list $T$1 = 20 (number of items)
A19 = 131
D21 = Item 9
This works to produce a number 1179 that results in item 9 being populated:
=IF($A19*RIGHT(D21,1)>4000,"Not enough Lines",IF($A19*RIGHT(D21,1)>('Staff List '!$N$17*'Staff List '!$T$1),"",'Scoring Sheet'!$A19*RIGHT(D21,1)))
However for items 10 - 20 I get the same results as calls 1 - 9 with 0 for 10 and 20...
E21 = Item 10
=IF($A19*RIGHT(E21,1)>4000,"Not enough Lines",IF($A19*RIGHT(E21,1)>('Staff List '!$N$17*'Staff List '!$T$1),"",'Scoring Sheet'!$A19*RIGHT(E21,1)))
Any help would be appreciated. It appears RIGHT is extracting the text but 10 is seen as 0 and 11 as 1 and so on.
No Worries...sorted it :)
How to write a formula to take the value from the right and translate it into another value: Values in A1 - A3 are ddd - 100S, ddd - 100N, ddd - 100, I need to find the S, N and blank and translate that into Sally/Ned/Unassigned
Hi, Donna,
Try using nested IF together with RIGHT function:
=IF(RIGHT(H2)="S", "Sally", IF(RIGHT(H2)="N", "Ned", IF(VALUE(RIGHT(H2,1))=0, "Unassigned","")))
Thank you very much, that formula did the trick.
You're welcome!
