Power Query solution

Power Query is a free AddIn for Excel 2010 and 2013, and is built-in functionality from Excel 2016 onwards (where it is referred to as "Get & Transform Data").

It is a powerful yet simple way of getting, changing and using data from a broad variety of sources, creating steps which may be easily repeated and refreshed. I strongly recommend learning how to use Power Query - it's among the most powerful functionalities of Excel.

Hi Dougers1,

You have two ways of doing this.

1 - Data > transform using your ";" delimiter, then strip "Email1 " from your second column either by search and replace or by formula.
2 - Using Excel wizardry, see below.

Please try at B1:C1

=TRIM(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE($A1,";",REPT(" ",99)),COLUMNS($B1:B1)*99-98,99))," ",REPT(" ",99)),99))
