Assuming Column A has your numbers:

A B C
2B14122 =LEFT(A1,4) =LEFT(A1,2)

Hi,

I have a worksheet that contains three seperate columns. In one column
I have 7 numbers and letters combined. (i.e 2B14122) I want to move the
first four digits into another column, and the first two digits into
another column. How do I do that without copying, pasting and
deleting? I'm sure there is a formula but I can't think of it.

Thanks.
