What the agent was asked to do

You are solving a spreadsheet benchmark task in a real workbook. Objective: Produce the correct final workbook state for the expected answer region. What matters: - Only the values in the expected answer region will be graded. - The workbook is the answer. Instructions: 1. Read the workbook and inspect the relevant data region first. 2. Infer the required result for the provided workbook instance. 3. Write the final value(s) directly into the expected answer region. 4. Do not rely on prose, formulas in your chat response, pseudocode, or VBA as the answer unless the benchmark explicitly requires those to be written into cells. 5. If the natural-language task asks for a general method, formula, or macro, convert that into the concrete result needed for this workbook instance. 6. Keep your final text response short and only summarize the workbook cells you changed. Relevant data region(s): A14:I137 Expected answer region(s): A14:I137 Expected answer sheet(s): Sheet1 Task: I am looking for a macro that can be used in Excel 2016 to delete alphabetic characters from cell values in column B, without altering other data in the same column. The cell values to be altered are alphanumeric strings that typically start with a 2 or 3 letter code (always in uppercase) followed directly by a number, or a space before the number if the code is 2 letters long. For example, 'PID1' should be changed to '1', 'PID2' to '2', and 'GG 1' to '1'. The length of these strings is variable and the letter codes can include a variety of different letters. Also, there is a date value in the column which should not be changed by the macro. If you don't have a macro, just execute.
