Correct, I forgot to mention that fixed width put a line between all the
words and that you have to double click the ones you don't need, I believe
using your example you remove 3 lines before and one after the split, then
just press finish
In this case no need to go to step 3 and click next

Make sure the column to the right is empty, then do datatext to columns,
select fixed width, click next and click where you want the split. If there
can be different strings with different lenght you can use a formula to find
for instance the question mark

=TRIM(MID(A1,FIND("?",A1)+1,255))
