What did that do with the OP's example of 0 0 01444 831918, Dennis?

If there is always the same structure of segments, the easiest option may be
Data/ Text to columns/ Delimited/ by space.

If your phone numbers are in column A then column B gets the code with
=LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)-1)
Column C gets the phone number with
=MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,LEN(A1)-FIND(" ",A1))

I have a list of phone numbers in one column and I need to separate
the bit before the space from the bit after it. e.g. 0 0 01444 831918
etc So I need to extract the 01444 before the space into column
Telephone area code and 831918 into telephone. Can someone please
advise? Thanks Himani
