    How to devide one text cell into two cells

    Hello,
    Could you please help me to devide one text cell into two cells?

    I have a text in one cell:

    Pool H/W Borrow for:Corthesy Carole

    How to devide it in a way that:
    Pool H/W Borrow
    appears in one cell, and:
    for:Corthesy Carole
    appears in a cell on the right of the first cell

    Thank you in advance

    Is "for:" always the determining factor in terms of where the split should take place ... ?

    If so run an Edit -> Replace on your present values Replacing for: with ^for:

    Now highlight your values and run:

    Data -> Text to Columns -> Delimited -> in Step 2 enter ^ into "Other" and click Finish.
