Default Excel Sort?


With your data starting in B5, enter this formula in C5 and fill down...
=RIGHT(B5,LEN(B5) -FIND(" ",B5,1))
It finds the first space and returns the text after that character.

Below is a sample of the portion of a column on an excel sheet.
I would like to put everything to the right of the number in a separate
column.
such as, everything to the right of 6346, 6510 and so forth and trickier
ones like 7140-44

Can anyone explain to me how I would do this? Thanks.

6346 W. 13th Street
6510 W. 16th Street
6516 W. 16th Street
6519 W. 16th Street
6706 W. 16th Street
6808 W. 16th Street
7140-44 W. 16th Street
6445-10 W. 18th Street
6501 W. 18th Street
6446 W. 19th Street
