Are you looking for a workseet function or VBA solution?
If you need a worksheet function, I used this logic:
A1 = "Being amt. of claim incentive for CE of Apr-14 claim receivable from TDL."
in a cell named "AmtofClaim" I used the formula:
=FIND("amt. of claim",A1) + 14
(14 is the length of "amt. of claim")
in a cell named "ClaimRecv" I used:
=FIND(" claim receivable",A1)
(note the leading space in " claim receivable" gives the position of this space)
So, the formula to extract the string from after "amt. of claim" to "claim
receivable" is:
=MID(A1,AmtofClaim,ClaimRecv-AmtofClaim)
inserting the two FIND() formulas into this formula gives:
=MID(A1,FIND("amt. of claim",A1)+14,FIND(" claim receivable",A1)-(FIND("amt. of
claim",A1)+14))
if you're looking for a vba solution,
the technique is similar, but you use Substr() instead of Find()
hope this helps,
Paul
