Split cell help!
I was wondering if there was a formula I could use in excel to split data out
from a single cell into multiple cells ie Sydney NSW 2000 (Currently All in one cell) Would like to know how to split "Sydney" into it's own cell,"NSW" into its own cell and respectively "2000" into its own cell Thanks |

I don't know of a formula but try selecting the cell containing the data,
then from top toolbar- data -text to columns. Select delimited, then space as your delimiter. Should have the desired effect if you are looking for a one off fix! davids wrote: I was wondering if there was a formula I could use in excel to split data out from a single cell into multiple cells ie Sydney NSW 2000 (Currently All in one cell) Would like to know how to split "Sydney" into it's own cell,"NSW" into its own cell and respectively "2000" into its own cell Thanks |

Split cell help!
this works but it is limited say for instance my suburb is called "lane cove"
i get "lane" in its own column and "cove" in its own column is there a way to keep "lane cove" in one cell then "NSW" in its own cell and then "2022" in its own cell?

I think you need to present us with the possible variations in order to obtain a coherent answer. Will NSW always be NSW? If not, how do we differentiate it from the rest of the string. For example: is it always a three letter string of capital letters that precedes a four digit number that ends the string? Or are there more variations than that? --ron |
