Pull out the invoice number
A Google Sheets formula exercise from Sheetsdrill. Solve it with a formula bar on a live sheet in your browser, and it is checked the moment you submit.
The task
Extract the invoice number from each payment note as a real number, so it can be sorted and matched. Fill B2 and B3 using REGEXEXTRACT.
What this exercise teaches
Text that looks like a number does not sort or match like one. VALUE converts it.
A hint if you get stuck
"\d+" matches a run of digits. REGEXEXTRACT always returns text, so wrap it in VALUE.
