I have a worksheet with data split by a "/" eg. BARRISTER/F. GREY
I want to split the data into two adjacent columns
eg "BARRISTER", "F. GREY"

I have tried =LEFT(A1,FIND("/",A1)-1) for the first field, which
works, and =MID(A1,FIND("/",A1,99)for the second, which doesn't, of
course (I understand why).

What should I do,instead, please?
