    Cool HELP: Need to separate values from a single cell with multiple values

    Hi,

    I am at a lost on how to do this and sorry if I do not get it straight away, anyhow here goes:

    Cell Value (This is how it is spaced out within the cell) = DTL 5123456 Change 2000012010030920130206 51234567 Platinum

    I am wanting to find a formula that will:
    1. Separate each data into a single cell (e.g A1=DTL 5123456, A2=Change, A3=2000...etc)
    2. Retrieve the date(s) within the large 2000...#

    Any help will be greatly appreciated, apologies if I have not explained well.

    Cheers

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are demonstrated, mock them up manually if needed. Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    Thanks Vlady, really appreciate it! :-) Hopefully someone will be able to help with the last column and maybe be able to explain this method used so I need not to ask again in the future - Thanks :-)

    MID(TRIM(A2),FIND("@",SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(A2)," ","@",5)),15)
    you can use above formula to extract the last column.
