Splitting text into two columns
 

I'm trying to split text in one column into two separate columns with a
couple of exceptions. I need to paste a formula down a column to produce the
following results in Column B & C

Example:

A B C
1 AAA1*111-1 AAA1 111-1
2 AAA2*111-2 AAA2 111-2
3 AAA AAA
4 Z Z

You don't need formulae. Use Data/ Text to columns, and specify the
asterisk as the delimiter.
