You could use Data|Text to columns.
Delimited by space and check the Treat consecutive delimiters as one Eric wrote: Does anyone know how to retrieve certain text from string in excel? for example, in cell A1, " 1 abc 18 21", I would like to retrieve the value of 1 in B1, and 18 in C1 without including any space.

Why not try starting from the "Data" menu, and see whether you can work it
out from there? -- David Biddulph "Eric" wrote in message ... Thank you for your reply Could you please describe more on how to do it?

How to retrieve certain text from string?
To Eric - I read an older note of yours in a different place about a
sound problem - sound turning itself off mysteriously. I've been having this sound problem. A full Norton Ghost restore fixed it for a few days. I need to be able to get the sound back easier. On Windows XP I don't see windows sound in the system tools. Any info? thanks Eric wrote: Thank you Eric "David Biddulph" wrote: Why not try starting from the "Data" menu, and see whether you can work it out from there? -- David Biddulph "Eric" wrote in message ...
