I have a problem at the moment, I have a column of reference numbers that has been given to me in a single column this consists of a prefix of between 0 and three letters and number and a suffix of a combination of both text and numbers. these different sections are divided by "/" how can I extract the different elements into three different columns
any ideas?

examples of strings are 12345, a/12345/b(ad1), G/C/12345(AD)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Chris
