HOW DO I SEPERATE INFO FROM ONE INTO TWO COLUMNS?
If you always have an "x" separating the two numbers with no spaces,
then the following formulae will split the first and second numbers, assuming your data is in cell A1: first number: =VALUE(LEFT(A1,FIND("x",A1)-1)) second number: =VALUE(RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("x",A1))) FIND is case sensitive - you might prefer to use SEARCH instead. Hope this helps.
