Default Simple Parsing Question in Excel 2000

Hi,

I have a report that is used every day to key in information from. It
would be a lot simpler just to parse out the needed data. Here is the
detail...

I imported the data file into Excel, and all I need is 4 numbers from
certain cells. When imported the numbers are in one continuous line
(in a single cell) with breaks in between them like this (ignore the
quotation marks):

Cell A12

" 74,338.00 40,000.00
1,500.00" etc.

I need something simple that will read the data in this cell and grab
the first four numbers and assign them to different cells in a
spreadsheet. So 74,338.00 goes to Cell B5, 40,000.00 to B6, etc.

Thanks in advance, the members of this board are always very helpful!
