Create as many blank columns to the right of the column in question so
existing data does not get overwritten.
Highlight the desired column
Choose Data/Text to Columns from the Menu
Delimited will be marked by default - Click Next
Choose the most appropriate delimiter from the available options - Click
Next
Apply appropriate formats to each column from the available options -
Click Finish

Subject: [mso] Dividing Contents of an Excel column into 2 columns


I know I've seen this is asked and answered before,
but can't seem to find it in the archives now, so
accept my apologies for asking.

I need to know how to take the contents of one Excel
column and split the contents between 2 cells. We have
one column containing and part number and its
name...we'd like to have the part number and names in
different columns.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Diane
