Hello,

I am having trouble grasping how to setup a formula to pull the below information out of the string.

%200340$1$0$1$10%

How would I write a formula to extract only the numbers between the $% on the right hand side. Example above is 10, however could go into 3 digits.

Thank you

Another note: the numbers before it are dynamic as well. Could be
%200340-1$1$0$10$100%. This may complicate the formula.

maybe this? Note it is strill a string. YOu would need to use tonumber to make it numeric
 
replace(Mid({table.field},InStrRev({table.field},"$")+1),"%","")
