    How to split mixed data into 2 separate columns?

    Dear Friends,

    How can I split mixed data (Text & Numbers) into 2 seperate columns? For example the following data is in Cell A1 and I would like to split Numbers into Cell A2 & Text into Cell A3.

    501054 ROYAL SUPPLIERS
    605423 SRUJANA MARKETING AGENCIES

    Note: First 6 characters are numbers then one single space and the text has variable characters.

    Thanks in advance.

    A lot of varied questions today - seems almost like homework.

    A2: =0+LEFT(A1,6)
    A3: =SUBSTITUTE(A1,A2&" ","")
