I was shocked because of

 

"apostrophe"

 

I couldn't imagine it.!

 

Plus How can I use the Spoiler which is covered images in this reply?

 

Could anyone give me the way? 🙂

This took me way too long and many tools, but my mind wasn't able to get it done with less.

Thank you for your interest and give a better way.

 

I absolutely agree with using "Left function" in the second tool, multi-row formula.

 

I also thought to use "Left" at first, but I would like to use the regex that is more general. That's why mine is longer than I expected.

Given the format of the column name, an easier way is to use text to column. But I have tried to use running total, and multi-row formula as a practice.

Hi @Soonyeon_Kim 

 

Just in case you still haven't found the answer for your spoiler question.

Spoilers are another popular option. Click the Insert a Spoiler Tag icon to create a spoiler container. This is essentially a mini response box that will be collapsed so as not to give away any tricks for those who haven’t solved yet.

Many folks like to insert a screen capture of their workflow. Make sure your cursor is in the spoiler box and use the “Photo” icon to upload an image.
