Reducing the number of digits in a column.

Solved

Hello,

In Open Calc, I have a column with a SIRET consisting of 14 digits. For example, 25345678900019. I want to create a new column that only contains the first 9 digits of the SIRET, which will be titled SIREN. I have a total of a column with 700 SIRET initially. Could you guide me on how to automatically convert the 700 SIRET with 14 digits into 700 SIREN with 9 digits?

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

To try

=LEFT(SIRET cell;9) to be extended over the 700 lines

Best regards

Sure. It works, but in the response, you need to replace the term "cell" with the OPEN OFFICE reference of the cell to be modified. For example, =LEFT(B21;9)

That's why I put it in italics and underlined it.

Thank you, you are absolutely right and I didn't get it. I apologize. I'm not yet familiar enough with Open Office.
