    Seperating Multiple Data in a Cell into Single Data Individual Cells

    I look forward to a solution in regards to separating multiple data in a single cell. This attached excel file Excel Example.xls contains data that was converted from a PDF file. There are a few cells I would like to have the data separated resulting in each cell with single data fields. For example the Column F shows the following DB sq rail equal insert sloped sill all in one cell and it needs to be separated into (5) separate cells as follows: F2 DB, G2 sq rail, H2 equal, I2 insert, J2 sloped sill. There is no need for the remaining K-Q cell and they could be deleted. The same applies for cell S2 shows WH/CV and should be S2 WH and T2CV.

    I look forward to your response.


    Many Thanks


    Scott

    =right(S3,FIND("/",S3)-1)

    The data will not always be the same in regards to the charter however, the number of charters will remain the same. For example: DB could be CT or CS or GL ect. The number of charters will be same if there is 2 there will always be 3 if there is 3 there will always be 3.

    One more Q. Apart from sq rail, what other possibilities are there?

    Likewise for sloped sill...

    1. Demerge the cells.

    In G3: =SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(F3," ","|",6)," ","|",2)

    In H3: =SUBSTITUTE(MID(SUBSTITUTE(" "&$G3," ",REPT(" ",125)),125*COLUMNS($A:A),125),"|"," ") and drag across.
