Hi

Try
=FIND("^",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"/","^",4))
to find the position of the 4th occurrence of "/" in A1. Change 4 to 5 to
find the 5th etc.

To find the same thing starting from the right, you need to know how many
"/" there are, take 4 or 5 away, and find that occurrence from the left as
above.
To find the number of "/" in the cell use
=LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"/",""))
