How to split number and text string to separate cells?
Hi,
If you are going to use MID you need to modify the previous example:
=MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,200)
notice this matches the issue with LEFT
=LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)-1)
and if you want to use right by itself
=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(" ",A1))
We don't know enough about your data, but the tool of choice for splitting
data is Data, Text to Columns.

I have in cells A1:A1000....a combination of number and text, ex.."123 abc abc"
I wanted to split into 2 separate cells...I've done the number part...using
"=LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1))" to cell B1
but I can't seem to figure out how to split out "abc abc" to C1?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
