Hi All ~

Need to separate this kind of data into 3 fields

Los Angeles, CA 90038

I found this bit of code which ALMOST does what i need it to

For the city, use
=LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1)-1)
For the state, use
=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(",",A1)-1)


but it comes back with the State and Zip still in the same field and
there is no coma between I can use to select. Is there a way to get it
to grab only numbers?

THANKS!
JB

For the State:

=MID(A1,FIND(",",A1,1)+2,2)

For the Zip (assuming it is always 5 digits)

=RIGHT(A1,5)
