Hello everyone! I often inputting only a number in a spreadsheet and it would be quicker if there is a faeture or macro perhaps, wondering if anyone would help creating it? Been searching in the available Macro in the ClipboardFusion but didn't find it yet.

Example : The text is "Purchasing on USD 950.54" and I want to copy only the number, ignoring the text to "950.54"

Thank you in advance!

I put together a macro that should work for you. Here's how to get it into ClipboardFusion:

  • Download the file attached to this post
  • Open the ClipboardFusion Settings window
  • On the "Macros" tab, click the "Import" button
  • Select the file you downloaded in the first step
  • In the window that pops up, you can review the code and assign the Macro a HotKey
  • Click OK to close the Macro Edit window, then OK again to save and apply your changes
• Attachment: Strip First Number from Text.cfmacro [11,896 bytes]

A good job Thomas. For use in countries where they use a comma as a decimal separator, you could add some text in the macro. The user has to change the dot in the middle (.\d+)?") of this line into a comma:
return Regex.Match(text, @"(\d+)(.\d+)?").ToString();
Even better would be a string variable at the top of the macro that can be set to "." or ",", but I do not know how to get the value of the string variable into the Regex-line.
