As long as the only digits that appear in the string are at the front, you could
put this in B1 (with A1 containing the original string):

=MAX(IF(ISNUMBER(-MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1))),1)),
ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))))

(but hit ctrl-shift-enter instead of just enter.)

And put this in C1:
=--LEFT(A1,B1)

And put this in D1:
=MID(A1,B1+1,len(a1))

Then drag those formulas down the length of your data.

But this will fail when you have this:

Dear Mate,

I have some 1000+ data which has a mix of text and figues combined. Each
combined entry is in one cell. I need to separate them or remove the figures
from the text for examaple.
