Address must be 18 characters long
Hi all again
I need the address to be 18 characters long i.e. if the address is over 18 characters then chop it, if its under, then add spaces Is this possible? Thanks as always Derek |

Address must be 18 characters long
=left(a1&rept(" ",18),18)
This will add spaced at the end if you want spaces in front =right(rept(" ",18)&a1,18) -- Wag more, bark less "Derek M" wrote: Hi all again I need the address to be 18 characters long i.e. if the address is over 18 characters then chop it, if its under, then add spaces Is this possible?

Address must be 18 characters long
that second formula would result in the last 18 characters of the address if
A1 was already longer than that. =left(rept(" ",max(0,18-len(a1)))&a1,18) "Brad" wrote in message ... =left(a1&rept(" ",18),18) This will add spaced at the end if you want spaces in front =right(rept(" ",18)&a1,18) -- Wag more, bark less "Derek M" wrote: Hi all again I need the address to be 18 characters long i.e. if the address is over 18 characters then chop it, if its under, then add spaces Is this possible?
