Hello Glen,

Have you tried using the InStr function? Here is your code with it
inserted...

strDWG = Range("J" & i & "").Value
'dwgNSN = Left(strDWG, 18)
dwgNSN = Left(strDWG, InStr(1, "/", strDWG) - 1)
'dwgMFR = Right(strDWG, 18)
dwgMFR = Right(strDWG, Len(strDWG) - InStr(1, "/", strDWG) )

Sincerely,
Leith Ross
