With data in Column A,
In B1 enter
=A1
and copy down as needed,
Then, custom format Column A to perhaps
mm/dd/yyyy
AND
Custom format Column B to perhaps
hh:mm AM/PM

This makes it look the way I want but I actually need them separated for
sorting purposes. Is there a formula that will do it. I tried to use
=right(a1,10) but it just have some numbers that didn't mean anything and
could not be formatted as time.
Any other ideas?

Thanks.

Hi Dan B

Try this:

Select the cells containing the data.

Click Data Text to Columns.

Click Delimited, click Next

Uncheck Tab, check Space, click Finish.

Steve
