How to extract email addresses to new column
I have a large spreadsheet with email addresses lumped together in the
same column as phone numbers. I am trying to extract the email addresses and place them in a new column within the same worksheet. I don't have much of a background in setting up macros or formulas. Any suggestions? |

How to extract email addresses to new column
Can you post some examples of the fields that are lumped together?
Maybe there's always a space between the two pieces of data and you can split it that way? Thanks, Johnny |

How to extract email addresses to new column
if you want to use formulas, not VBA, and your addresses and phone numbers
are separated by a single space try this (assuming your list is in column "A") in cell "B1" enter the formula =LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)-1) in cell "C1" enter =MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,LEN(A1)-LEN(B1)) then select cells "B1:C1" and drag (copy) them down to the end of your list "Inquirer" wrote: I have a large spreadsheet with email addresses lumped together in the same column as phone numbers.

Try using the Text to Column function under the Data menu. Choose
delimited and use a space as the delimiter. Otherwise, I would use a formula as suggested by another poster. Finally, if that doesn't work, you might try using Regular Expressions in VBScript. I won't go into that if the other two ideas work. Thanks, Johnny |
