How do I get the last character of a string using an Excel function?


回答1:


No need to apologize for asking a question! Try using the RIGHT function. It returns the last n characters of a string.

=RIGHT(A1, 1)



回答2:


=RIGHT(A1)  

is quite sufficient (where the string is contained in A1).

Similar in nature to LEFT, Excel's RIGHT function extracts a substring from a string starting from the right-most character:

SYNTAX

RIGHT( text, [number_of_characters] )

Parameters or Arguments

text

The string that you wish to extract from.

number_of_characters

Optional. It indicates the number of characters that you wish to extract starting from the right-most character. If this parameter is omitted, only 1 character is returned.

Applies To

Excel 2016, Excel 2013, Excel 2011 for Mac, Excel 2010, Excel 2007, Excel 2003, Excel XP, Excel 2000

Since number_of_characters is optional and defaults to 1 it is not required in this case.

However, there have been many issues with trailing spaces and if this is a risk for the last visible character (in general):

=RIGHT(TRIM(A1))  

might be preferred.

Looks like the answer above was a little incomplete try the following:-

=RIGHT(A2,(LEN(A2)-(LEN(A2)-1)))

Obviously, this is for cell A2...

What this does is uses a combination of Right and Len - Len is the length of a string and in this case, we want to remove all but one from that... clearly, if you wanted the last two characters you'd change the -1 to -2 etc etc etc.

After the length has been determined and the portion of that which is required - then the Right command will display the information you need.

This works well combined with an IF statement - I use this to find out if the last character of a string of text is a specific character and remove it if it is. See, the example below for stripping out commas from the end of a text string...

=IF(RIGHT(A2,(LEN(A2)-(LEN(A2)-1)))=",",LEFT(A2,(LEN(A2)-1)),A2)

Just another way to do this:

=MID(A1, LEN(A1), 1)
