Default Parse text & Numbers

I need to separate into columns the info below. When I use text to columns
with the space as the separator the first four columns work but after that
the columns don't line up because the text names vary in number of words. Is
there at least a way I can separate the $$'s at the end of the string into
one column?

So presumably you want to extract

7875.00
66.02
258.35
454.51

?

And Data Text to Columns, Delimited (using multiple spaces) didn't work?

Anyway, to extract these $ figures, if the first record were in cell A2, try
the array formula

=--MID(A2,LEN(A2)-MATCH(" ",MID(A2,LEN(A2)-ROW(INDIRECT("1:"
&LEN(A2))),1),0),1024)
