Default How separate a Long text by first space?

I would do it with 2 formulas...

=LEFT(E1, FIND(" ", E1)-1)
and
=MID(E1, FIND(" ", E1)+1, 256)

That will give you the seperate values. You can then copy and paste them as
values if you wish...

I want them separated by first space that exist from left to right, example:

Column A Column B

a-x00-sss-maxss Max SS
a-x00-sss-longdie Long die used
