Step1 : Find number of occurrences (this is the most important step in all this) = LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,”,”,””)) (What a great way to get the number of occurrences – very thoughtful!) Step2: Substitute the last occurrence only! = SUBSTITUTE(A1,”,”,”|”, … ) (… follows from the function above which gives the instance to be substituted) Step3: Extract using the first formula above RIGHT(A1, LEN(A1) – FIND(“|”,…,1)) Putting them all together – =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(“|”,SUBSTITUTE(A1,”,”,”|”,LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,”,”,””)))))
