    Question Separate text of 8 elements into different cells

    Hello everyone,

    I'm trying to have a "fixed" format of text seperated into different cells.
    The text consists of number codes, single words and short descriptions, as well as codes consisting numbers AND letters.
    The text always has 8 elements, which I want to seperate into different columns/cells.
    I actually only need 3 of the 8 elements so i can use them for other things later on. I will hightlight those red in my sheet.

    I know that the manual way is to use the text to columns function, but I want to remove that step with preexisting functions that are written in the cells where i want the elements to be.
    Also since my text has spaces in the elements itsself, right now i have to manually put semicolons in between to use the text to columns function.

    Sorry if this is not well explained, my english isn't as good :D.
    It might become clear with my sheet.

    Also, i only have to do this for one text in one worksheet, not a list of them. Meaning I usually copy the text out of a pdf and want it seperated for that sheet.

    Thanks ahead!
