comment Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 This can be done by calculation - no custom function required: FilterValues ( listOfValues ; Substitute ( ¶ & listOfValues ; [ ¶ & prefix ; "§" ] ; [ ¶ ; "¶±" ] ; [ "§" ; ¶ & prefix ] ) ) Note that this is case-sensitive - though it could be adjusted, if required.
