    to extract arabic at B (formula array)
    first data at A1 first formula at B1
    {=LEFT($A1;MAX(IFERROR(IF(CODE(MID($A1;ROW($1:$99);1))=63;ROW($1:$99));0)))}

    to extract english at C (depend on result at B)
    =SUBSTITUTE(A1;B1;"")

    all formula copy down

    OK thank, جزاكم الله
    it's solved
    but when I downloaded the file it doesn't work well, cell B1 can't display the result. but when I look at the code, I think the problem is dealing with my local computer system that I set to Arabic Saudi local system, but when I change to English US it's displayed well
    thank you

    Re: split between arabic and english in one cell into two cell

    Hi.

    It's a forum rule that you start your own thread, rather than "piggy-backing" on someone else's thread. This helps prevent massive confusion arising - which will happen if it is not clear which question is being answered. So please start your own thread and explain your own problem (make sure that, right from the start, you use a meaningful title (NOT things like "help needed" or "urgent problem"... think of the Google search terms that you would use to find the solution).

    A picture is worth 1,000 words. An Excel sheet is worth 1,000 pictures. So, prepare a SMALL sample sheet (10-20 rows, not thousands!!!). Make sure there is enough data to demonstrate your need. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary. Remember to remove ALL confidential information first!!!


    The yellow banner about sample worksheets, at the top of the screen tells you how to post a sheet here on the Forum.
