Hi @EndouJasper

Welcome to the Forum. See this first_letter.knwf (19.6 KB)
Knipsel
It splits the column into multiple column then with the string manipulation do a substring. Finally concat all the columns together.

Hi @EndouJasper -

In that case you just need to swap out the Table Creator for an Excel Reader (XLS) node, and point the Cell Splitter to the appropriate column. Then Hans’ workflow should take care of it.
