Default Parsing Data with Formulas (vs Text-to-Columns)

I have data that looks like this:

ColA ColB
tag12!=2005 tag33!=1

is there a formula that I can place in ColB and C that will take just the
data to the right of the "=" character ?

Thank you in advance.

one way:


=MID(A1,FIND("=",A1)+1,255)

where 255 is just a big number.

You can use

=MID(A1,FIND("=",A1)+1,999999)

and you can place a "--" (no quotes) before the MID to make them look like
numbers.
