Default splitting text from one cell

I need to remove specified data from a single cell and place on the same row
in another column. Not all data will be the same eg 100mg, 200mg etc

Default splitting text from one cell

Not too clear; what data?
Do you want to extract the number from the text?
This will extract 100 from 100mg and 5 from 5mg:
=--LEFT(A1,FIND("m",A1)-1)
Any help?
