    How do I split one cell of 6 numbers into two cells of 3 and 3?

    I have a column of data that has six numbers in each cell, however I need to
    split this into two columns, where the first column is the first three digits
    and the second column is the last three. There is no separator (space, comma
    or dash) between the numbers. Any suggestions?

    Use Text To Columns.

    Select your column of data, then:
    <Data> <TextToColumns>

    Click "Fixed Width", then <Next>,

    Click in the data to display the "break line", and drag it to separate the
    numbers as desired.
    Then <Finish>

    Assuming the data to be in column A
    in B1=LEFT(A1,3)
    in C1=RIGHT(A1,3)

    If you want the results as numeric, then put *1 at the end of each formula.
    Copy down the range required
