Hello,

I have a relatively simple questions this time.  

I have around a thousand of these some If-then doesn't seem very practical.

I have:  DHI-523-Somatic-Cell-Graphs.pdf

I need: DHI-523 Somatic Cell Graphs



Does anyone have an idea? 

 When I use translate to take off the ".pdf" it will talk all the p's, d's. and f's out of the string.
