    Return multiple values from a cell by identifying , or :

    Hi all

    I have a string of numbers that return in a cell in the following format:

    374:10,4:0,350:0,318:0,227:0,240:0,267:0,264:0,411:0,211:0,49:0,409:0,607:0,315:0

    I am basically trying to return the following in an adjacent cell:

    374,4,350,318,227,240,267,264,411,211,49,409,607,315

    So anything to the left hand side of the colon. Any help you can provide I would be grateful.

    Many thanks.

    Can you please show it in excel with expected output, since I am unable to understand your data and your expected outcome

    copy the lot to adjacent cell
    find :*,
    replace with ,
    then find :*
    replace with nothing
