Hello all! I need help with parsing out the below and returning the values.

- NON-EDIBLE- RG - - - EA - Brand - - Description - - - Dominance/Flavor/Color - Purchased

Are there formulas to parse out the text in here delimitated by " - " and " - - - " ?

thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
You can use the text to columns feature, choosing delimited, checking both space and other : -, and checking the treat consecutive delimiters as one

Thank you! I'm trying to do it via formula so I can continue to update the source of data without having to use the text-to-columns feature.

@MountainFog the OP is using 2016 (according to their profile) & so does not have Textsplit. ;)
