Default separate columns (three letter code)

Use RIGHT()

=RIGHT(A1,3)

Thanks Jacob for your help.

But actually, that will not work... I simplified my example, in real life it
is:

[Mw. dog PKO]
[Mr. horse KLI]

So I really need a formula, to separate the three letters on the right....I
know there is a formula, but I forgot it...

Hope you can help me out.

Thanks in advance

Keep the selection and hit 'Next'.

Hit Finish

Hi, does someone know how to separate text from one column into two columns?

I have columns like
[dog, KKL]
[horse, PPN]

Everytime, three capitals in the end (which is a code).

Is it possible to separate that, and put it in another column?

Thanks in advance.
