500+ sentences, I need to seperate (text to columns) after the first "-"
only. There are subsequent "-" but I only want it seperated at the first.
And when I seperate it in the second column I do not want a space preceeding
the text. Can you give advice on this, any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks

flight plan or weather conditions (IFR or VFR). A tower may also provide

Here is the solution I posted in response to your first post:
=left(a1,find("-",a1)-2)
=right(a1,len(a1)-find("-",a1)-1)

The best solutions are almost always in response to the first post.
Additional posts just make them more difficult to find.

Regards,
Fred
