Hi, I have been given a lot of free books for my Ereader but the index is in 2 different formats.

The first list is in this format:-

Book_Title - Author.Mobi

and the second is :-

Surname, Christian name - Title.Mobi

I'm running Excel 2010 but my knowledge is limited so please be gentle.

Is there any way I can combine these lists and check for duplications or even just split the list e.g. separate the Title from the author?

All help greatly appreciated, many thanks
Andy

Hi Andy,
Have a look in the help function for details on "text to columns". This should make what you're trying to do a doddle.

Failing that, attach the lists and i'll help from there.

Thanks for that, it was quite easy
