Re: How can I remove leading zeros?



Hi Gary,

Thanks for the formula. Unfortunately, the formula is for Visual Basic in
Excel, not for the Excel itself. I don't think Visual Basic has a formula
for "Substitute". I am sorry I should have indicated in my message that it
is for Visual Basic.

Thanks again.

try this if the cell in B2 had your example

Hello,

I have a field with values "AAAA", "0AAA", "00AA", and "000A". I want to
remove leading zeros on the ones with leading zeros. For example, "0AAA"
will turn into "AAA".

Can someone help me with the formula? I have tried using "Val" and "Str",
and they don't seem to work.

Thanks.
