Extract a number from a cell of text

I am trying to find out what formula I would use to
extract the number from the following cell:

Numer of items in truck,13625.

Then place the number in another cell where it can be used
in another formula.


Thanks

will this work. where f2 has your example.
We are finding the "," and subtracting that from the length of the text and
getting that number to the right.

=RIGHT(F2,LEN(F2)-FIND(",",F2,1))

Hi,

Assuming that truck,13625 is in cel A1, type the following
formula in cell B1 -

IF(MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(1*MID(A1,ROW($1:$8),1)),0) 1,1*MID
(A1,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(1*MID(A1,ROW
($1:$8),1)),0),255),1*MID(A1,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(1 *MID
(A1,ROW($1:$8),1)),0),SUM(COUNT(1*MID(A1,ROW($1:$1 9),1)))))

This formula should be array entered (Do this by Pressing
Ctrl+Shift+Enter after you have copied/typed the above
formula in cell B1).
