Hi,

My data is as follows, all in one cell:

10015200 US Government Bonds 18,369,423.52
10012301 US Government Bonds 10,232.21

There are many varying lengths of digits. I am trying split off the numbers
to the right of US Government Bonds into another column. Here is my
formula:
=RIGHT(A7,IF(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A7)),LEN(A7),FIND(" ",A7)))

My result is 9,423.52. Its not pulling the whole number.

What do I need to change in the formula?

Thanks

If your data is in A1, try

=MID(A1,SEARCH("US Government Bonds",A1)+20,255)

=--MID(A7,SEARCH("us government bonds",A7)+20,255)

=FIND(" ",A7)
finds the first space (directly before the "US Government...")

You want to find the last space character (or use a different method).

Ok...I messed up....All of the lines don't say US Government Bonds....I was
just showing data layout. I should have been more specific. Every row says
something different in place of the US Government....
Sorry about that. Any other ideas?

An unfortunate line break in Bob's formula:

=--MID(A7,FIND("~",SUBSTITUTE(A7," ","~",LEN(A7)
-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A7," ",""))))+1,99)

(all one cell)

I got the same thing. Something is wrapping.....when I paste the formula in
a cell, it splits it and puts the last third part of the formula in the next
row. When pasting directly into the function bar, I get the #Value! error.

Does your data entry cell really have a space in it?

If it does, you may want to post the formula you used.

Here is the formula:
=--MID(A7,FIND("~",SUBSTITUTE(A7," ","~",LEN(A7)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A7,"
",""))))+1,99)

I noticed that it is putting a ' before the = sign and before the part that
is splitting to the next row. I have tried removing the ' and putting the
formula all in one row. That's when I get the #Value! error. It seems like
it is treating the formula as text. This file is actually a .txt file
opened in Excel. I copied the data to a new, blank spreadsheet and I got
the same results.

I also tried manually typing in the formula instead of copy/paste. I still
got the #Value! error.
Sorry to be a pain, but I appreciate the help!!

my formula:
=RIGHT(A7,IF(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A7)),LEN(A7),FIND(" ",A7)))

My result is 9,423.52. Its not pulling the whole number.

What do I need to change in the formula?

Thanks
