Is there a way to break a cell of numbers so that each digit has its only column? i.e. cell contents are: 2345, is there a way to break that into four columns so 2 is its own cell, 3 is its own cell, 4 is its own cell, etc.?
Scenario: each number represents an edge condition, each edge condition has its own value (2=1.306) I need to be able to add the first and third digit values together, and the second and forth digit values. If I can break them into their own cell I can use a formula to add what the values represent instead of having to do it the long way.
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Nanaia
