Query (only numeric values)
Hello!

Is it possible to make QUERY function copy only numeric values? For example, I have a formula:

=QUERY(B1:E100,”select B").

Let's assume, that column B contains both text and numeric values. I need to get only numeric values while skipping text ones.

Thanks in advance!
