    Re: i have a data with numbers with letters in single cell , i need to split numbers and n

    In cell B5: =LEFT(A5,FIND("-",A5,1)-2)
    In cell C5: =RIGHT(A5,LEN(A5)-FIND("-",A5,1))

    Copy to down/up to applicable cells.

    Re: i have a data with numbers with letters in single cell , i need to split numbers and n

    for the numbers...
    =TRIM(LEFT(A2,SEARCH("-",A2,1)-2))
    for the text...
    =MID(A2,SEARCH("-",A2,1)+2,99)

    Use the built in Text-to-columns function in Excel and use | as your separator

    I don't understand what your issue is. Why cannot you use the text to columns function. It appears that you are trying to over-complicate a simple issue. Are you familiar with the text-to-columns functionality?

    I have to agree with Alan on this. I see at least 5 sets of numbers in there, and while this is entirely possible to do wit formulas, it will be far easier and quicker to do with Text2Columns
