Default Separate value in 1 column to 2 columns based on value in othe

Let's start with your column headers. Click on Tools, Options, select the
General tab, untick R1C1reference style, and you'll be back to A, B, C.
Am I correct in believing that Col B is empty at the moment?
I would rather use formulae to do the move, rather than a macro, unless this
is something that continually happens, eg because you import data. For a
once-off, rather a formula, but let me know.

Hi Kassie, thanks for the response i can see how it could read confusingly so
i added a follow up reply which shows an example of the information that i'm
working with and what I'd like it to appear as:

$400.00 DR
$550.00 DR
$59.00 CR
$88.00 DR
$757.00 CR

I'd like to macro to move the credits over like this:

$400.00 DR
$550.00 DR
$59.00 CR
$88.00 DR
$757.00 CR

I hope that makes it easier to get my request across. the columns that i'm
working with are B, C and D but for some reason they are showing up as
numbers like the rows do and not letters, that's where i think i got confused
when trying to explain the question in the original first post.

Not at al clear what you want to do here!
have the values in C2 move (cut/paste) to Column 3 - But column C is column 3?
if the value in C4 is a CR.

Why move C2 if C4 is a credit?

I would understand if you stated htat you have a column, say C, which
contains both credits and debits, and you want to move the debits to say col
D and the credits to say Col E. The only wuestion would then be how are you
differentiating. The logical answer would be the credits are preceded by a
-. Now that's easy. Is this what you want, else be a bit more specific?

Hi everyone,

Looking for help on trying to separate debits/credits that are listed in one
column (Column 2). Column 4 has either a DB or CR. I'm looking for a way to
have the values in C2 move (cut/paste) to Column 3, same row, if the value in
C4 is a CR.

Thanks as always.
