Default Text To Columns


Debrap29,

To add the "/" at the beginning when it is not found you could use
this.

=IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("/",A1,1)),A1,"/"&A1)

Copy down as needed. Then copy the result of your formulas and Paste
SpecialValues over your new text. Then you can use Text to Columns
with the "/" as the delimiter.

HTH
