If you want to extract email ID from a String Stored in any cell, it is possible by writing a Simple UDF (User Defined Function) in Excel. After writing this UDF, you can use this function as a normal Excel Function.<\/p>\n

Follow the below Steps:
\n1.<\/strong> Open Visual Basic Editor (Alt+ F11)
\n2.<\/strong> Open an Existing Module or add a New Module
\n3.<\/strong> Copy Paste the below Code and Save the Excel.
