Help sorting data into own column
 

Hi all

I want to copy and paste lottery results from previous from this site
http://www.irishlotto.net/main-results/2005.htm but the info is all in
one cell.
How can I get rid of the data I do not require and just keep the date
of the draw in one cell, the 6 numbers in another cell and the bonus
ball number in a 3rd cell.
I want to have like 3 columns headed DATE OF DRAW NUMBERS BONUS.
If anyone could show me how to do this easily I would be most grateful.
Many thanks

Help sorting data into own column
 

Do you really want just 3 columns? Presumably you are importing this
to Excel so you can perform statistical analysis on the results,
perhaps a frequency count to determine the most commonly occurring
numbers. If that's the case you'll need the numbers in their
individual cells.

For just three columns, try this: copy the data on the website into the
clipboard, open a blank spreadsheet, and paste into cell A1. Highlight
Column A and from the menu click Data Text to Columns, choose the
Delimited radio button, and click Next. In the next window's Delimiters
box, select Other and enter a - in the box, then click the Treat
Consecutive Delimiters as One checkbox. Click Finish, and the three
columns appear. You can clean up that leading comma in column B by
inserting a new column immediately to the right of column B and
entering this formula in C1:
=MID(TRIM(B1),2,LEN(TRIM(B1))-2)
....then copy and paste that down for remaining dates.

If you would like to have each number in its own cell for statistical
analysis, follow the same process as above, but select the Comma
checkbox for your delimiter.
