    1 column that i need to divide into two

    I have a problem...
    I have a list in excel with 1 column that i need to divide into two.
    In this column data looks like this 1234/07 where first 4 or less symbols represent order number and data and data after "/" represent year.
    Is it possible to divide this data so that symbols before "/" are shown in one column and symbols after "/" are shown in another column.
    So the function should do something like this

    A B C

    1084/06 1084 06
    1113/07 1113 07
    112/07 112 07
    1121/06 1121 06
    1152/06 1152 06
    11/06 11 06

    Please help
