No...I already tried that...it won't recognize the carriage return to break
on... Any other ideas? "Jeff" wrote: Data --Text to columns maybe? "xp" wrote: I have a column of data. In each row, is carriage return character in the middle of some data. The carriage return is never in the same position and the text is different lengths on each row. I need to split this data into two columns with the data to the left of the carriage return in one column and the data to the right of the carriage return in another column and leave out the carriage return altogether. Can anyone help me out with a solution to this? I can code or use formulas or even a built in command if there is one...thanks! |

If it does not recognize what you are entering as a carriage return, then you are not entering the same character(s) that are in your string. Pick your string apart with code like: A1: Sample string B1: =MID($A$1,COLUMNS($A:A),1) B2: =CODE(B1) Select B1:B2 and fill right until you are into the second line. The code or codes in between should tell you what your system is using for a carriage return. --ron |
