I have tried and tried. I can adjust these types of formula's (somewhat) if I need to......but I just can't figure this one out.

Normal request: How to extract text after the last space in a string? I can do this.
Unusual: How to extract text after the space BEFORE the last space in a string. I CAN'T DO THIS ONE:(

In a nut shell.....I need to split a string into 6 parts, and these 6 parts going into a different column on the same row.
See the image I uploaded. The spacing or order of information is always constant and won't change.

Column C : Original String
See the 2nd image uploaded to see what type of text goes into column D thru I. See my red text where I explain. TYSM!!!!!


Here is a string for example.
GB-200 130.00 EA 54" Freestanding Vanity $63,830.00 3000.030 Casegoods

In that case you should not be getting a #NAME error.
What happens if you copy the mini sheet from post#6 into a blank sheet.
