One of my Excel column of my board have to store numbers of 9 digits. I'm looking for a solution to keep only the 9 last digits of any bigger number past in this specific column. It's only entire number.
Also if after formatting the number it appear that the number starts with 0 the 0 have to be kept. Is there another solution than adding an '0 at first ?
Here is what I already done : (i is the row number / Range01 is Range("A14:O400"))
If Len(Range01.Cells(i,5).value) = 9 Then
Range01.Cells(i,5).Interior.color = vbGreen
ElseIf Len(Range01.Cells(i,5).value) = 8 Then
Range01.Cells(i,5).value = "'0" & Range01.Cells(i,5).value
ElseIf Len(Range01.Cells(i,5).value) > 9 Then
????
Else
Range01.Cells(i,5).Interior.color = vbRed
End If
Thanks for the help.

The simplest way to get the last nine numbers of an integer is:
=MOD(A1,1000000000)
(For your information, that's one billion, a one with nine zeroes.)
If you're interested in showing a number with leading zeroes, you can alter the cell formatting as follows: (the format simply contains nine zeroes)
If you're interested in keeping the zeroes, you might need to use your number as a string, and precede it with a good number of repeated zeroes, something like:
=REPT("0",9-LEN(F8))&F8
- Take the length of your number (which gets automatically converted into a string)
- Subtract that from 9 (so you know how many zeroes you need)
- Create a string, consisting of that number of zeroes
- Add your number behind it, using basic concatenation.

You can simply use the math operator of modulus. If you want the last 9
digit you can write:
n % 10000000000
Where n
is the number in the column.
In VBA:
MOD(n,1000000000)
