Default Left Right Mid

It would be easier to use Data | Text to Columns | delimited by a comma and
space. It wouldn't matter then how long the numeric strings were.

It looks as though you have spaces in there too. Assuming there a

B1 =MID(A1,1,5)
C1 =MID(A1,8,5)
D1 =MID(A1,15,6)
E1 =MID(A1,23,6)
F1 =MID(A1,31,6)

If there are no spaces, adjust the start positions.

You don't need to use LEFT and/or RIGHT

Regards

Trevor

I have data in cell A1 that looks like this. I want to be able to
seperate it with the left right mid functions into B1,C1, D1, E1, F1,
and get rid of the comma's. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
