If these are in column A, then copy this to column B to retain the
original data. Then highlight column B and do Data | Text-to-columns and specify | as the delimiter. Hope this helps. Pete |

I would highlight the data and use DataText to columns... and use the |
character as the 'other' delimiter. Then when you have parsed it all, use a helper column to put the original back together with =A1&"|"&B1&"|"&C1...etc -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England www.nickhodge.co.uk HIS "exceluser2" wrote in message ...

There's really *no* need to "put the original back together", since TTC has
an option to separate the data *without* touching (changing) the original data. In the 3rd step of the TTC wizard, just change the destination column address from the default (original data location) to any *other* empty column. -- Regards, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Nick Hodge" wrote in message ...
