Default Formula that works like text-to-column

But haven't you already got the values joined together in a single
cell, and you want to split them out? That's what you would normally
use Text-to-columns for, and that's what I thought you wanted to do !!

You could use a combination of LEFT, MID and RIGHT functions, for
example if your text is in A1, then:


B1: =LEFT(A1,3)
C1: =MID(A1,6,3)
D1: =MID(A1,11,3)
E1: =RIGHT(A1,3)


These can then be copied down the columns.


Hope this helps.

I have a cell that looks like this "123, 456, 789, 234". Is there a formula
that I can use that to seperate them instead of doing text-to-column?- Hide quoted text -
