Formula to Cut and paste Last 5 Digits into another cell
Hi there,
Is there a way to Cut and paste Last 5 Digits into another cell?
Example A1 has: 12345678, can I cut 45678 and paste into B1, using the same formula, for the entire column ?
(I know about the remove first or last digits, but is there a way to cut and paste?)
Thank you for your help!

Not necessarily a direct cut/paste for an entire column, but you can use a RIGHT function to pull the 5 rightmost characters and then cut/paste special and paste the values.

I needed to use these functions
Leave Last 5
=RIGHT(A1,5)
Leave Everything But Last 6 Digits
=LEFT(A1,LEN(A5)-6)
