    Post Split letters in cell into multiple cells:

    I was just curious.

    If I have a line of text and numbers e.g: "ABC123" in one cell, say cell B1, that was created by:

    Which respectfully are:
    "A", "B", "C", "1", "2", "3", "", ""

    Could I take that line of text and numbers from B1 and make it into a row of cells, each with one letter?

    Making a delimiter (for a table) may be tricky, since I cannot change row A's letters/numbers.

    Thank you in advanced.

    Re: Split letters in cell into multiple cells:

    If the value to split is in B1, then in any cell to the right enter this formula, then copy the cell to the right:

    =MID($B1,COLUMNS($A$1:A1),1)
