Default Need to parse column data only when text is present

Hello,

I have just received a CSV file that I've opened in Excel. And in it there
is a column that contains values that are text, numeric or both

Like:
RESTAURANT
Or..
078504877 601-992-5155
Or..
091649188 EATING PLACES AND REST

Is there a way to parse the column ONLY IF it contains any text, into a new
column? So for instance, the last set of values above, the values; 091649188
EATING PLACES AND REST would be parsed to column B and C as 091649188 and
then EATING PLACES AND REST, respectively.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Phil
