I assume your cretia for the 2nd row is to take the five digit after the two letters.

Hi @pierrejames ,

 

Here is an example for you.

First I'm using regex to identify strings with no numbers and then using right + left function to remove the first and last 2 characters.

 

Best,

Fernando Vizcaino
