Wow, that was fast
THANKS   :)

now ... lets get more complicated.
Phone numbers are entered:
0123/4567-89          national number
0049/123/4567-89         the same number
+49/123/4567-89         still the same number

should come out as   0123456789  to search in this column.
"0049" and "+49"  --> 0

while international numbers
+33/123456789
0033/123456789

should come as
+33123456789

I fear the hard part is that international codes have 1-3 digits   :(


Regards
Andreas

Hi,

I need a function that removes characters in strings that aren't in a
given set of chars.
e.g
Input:    12-34/ 56(8)
I want just numbers so Output should in this case be:  1234568

Is there a solution?
