Is anybody out there who can help me.
I have a worksheet with one column and it contains text of the format [[firstname] [lastname] [company name]] all in one cell thereby creating a record (see A below). The next row contains entry for a different record with the same format and have rows and rows of records in the same format described above. What I will like to do is to extract in each cell the name text and put it in a different column (e.g. column A) and the company name text in another column (e.g. column B) on row 1. Then go to the next cell and repeat the same for the next record - row 2 and so on.... A. Current Excel worksheet structure (sheet 1) ========================= A B C 1 firstname lastname companyname 2 firstname lastname companyname 3 firstname lastname companyname 4 B. Proposed Excel worksheet structure (sheet 2 - what I will like to achieve) ========================= A B C 1 firstname lastname companyname 2 firstname lastname companyname 3 firstname lastname companyname Is there a way to automate by writing a macro achieve and turn the format in A above into B for all records when run? |
