Hi,
I'm trying to split a cell that contains a part number and a part description into a cell that contains the part number and a cell that contains the part description. There are about 7,000 cells that need to be separated this way. I tried the text to columns wizard but that is very labor intensive since some part numbers have spaces and letters in them. Example: 124 TD45 88 Ceramic Insulators 12 671 6773 Copper Coils 116011 Variable Resistors I got as far as the formula =MID(A1,1,FIND(" ",A!,1)-1) but that only returns the first group of letters ("124", "12", "116011") how can I extract "124 TD45 88", "12 671 6773", and "116011" into their own cells and "Ceramic Insulators", etc. into their own cells? Thanks for your help, Jim |
