data splitting
 

hello..

I have a column of data which i want to split into 2 other columns.

For example,

A B C
ABC SCH, CDE SCH ABC SCH CDE SCH
FGH SCH, FGH SCH -
IJK SCH, LMN SCH IJK SCH LMN SCH

As seen above, the data is separated by commas.

I have input this formuale into cell B1 : =LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1)-1) and I
manage to get the "ABC SCH".

But I don't know what formuale to put in cell C1.

Can anyone help me ?

Thanks!

If possible, maybe a VBA code for everything here? (I'm don't know anything
about VBA at all)

Try the mid function, something like [=mid(A1,FIND(",",A1)+1,999)] - I
think you have to specify an upper limit for the length which I have
put as 999 here. If there might not be a comma, you need an if around
it to check the find.

Try
=TRIM(MID(A1,FIND(",",A1)+1,255))

OR try 'Text to Columns' option from menu 'Data'

....or if you don't want to specify the arbitrary length limit, you
could do it this way:

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(",",A1))
