body: <p>How do I remove all but the first 3 characters in a cell in Excel 2010? I have a column of data that I need to delete everything, which can be 6 more characters up to 30 more characters, except the first 3 characters. None of the characters are identical so Find &amp; Replace won't work.</p>
