    Can you post a sample worksheet so people can see what you need?

    Re: extract text and numbers

    well, this could work, a little long but seems to work...
    =LOOKUP(9E+99+307,--MID(A1,MIN(FIND({1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0},A1&1234567890)),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))))

    For text this ARRAY formula

    For numbers this regular one.

    -- Array(CSE) { }, formulae are confirmed with Control+Shift+Enter.
    Not just Enter.
