Hi, You can’t do it with a formula (a formula only changes the value of the cell which contains it). Either you use the replace command (Ctrl+H) or you have to use a macro.

"(Opt dart and a space) is replace with # and add with the previous cell which does not contain "Opt."originally. As per the attached sheet A9,10,11,12 we have to remove "Opt. " and add # with A8 as prefix. Similarly in A3 "Opt. 0D1"- Remove "Opt. "and insert # in front of A2 text i.e "AH401A" IF there is no Opt. in a particular cell it will remain as it is. Plz help me with formula. Regards, Prabhu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Some important links for excel users: 1.
