Hi, I have data like below. This is just a sample and the actual data is about 20k rows.

The column with the date and time is unhelpful and I'd like 3 new columns (as per my desired result below), ideally formatted as Date, Time and Date and Time respectively.

Hoping someone can help.

Original data
20230201000051​
20230201000121​
20230201000223​
20230201000240​
20230201000308​
20230215165310​
20230215165357​
20230215165922​
20230215161358​
20230215165222​
20230215164502​

actually you don't need the 1* in the time calculation. The problem was with zero length text character in the value as I copied your data over. So, this should work for you:
Excel Formula:
=TIME(MID(A2,9,2),MID(A2,11,2),MID(A2,13,2))

and possibly:
Excel Formula:
=TIME(MID(A2,9,2),MID(A2,11,2),RIGHT(A2,2))
