Hi,

I have in cell A5 : 02 06 10 25 39 and would like to separate those numbers into 1 cell each like below starting from cell B5:F5.

02 06 10 25 39 = 2 6 10 25 39

Thank you

[TD="width: 125"][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
Hi,

B5 formula copied across as far as needed (down and across if you have more rows of data):


Book1
ABCDEF
502 06 10 25 3926102539
Sheet170
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
B5=IFERROR(MID(SUBSTITUTE($A5," ",REPT(" ",30)),COLUMNS($B5:B5)*30-29,15)+0,"")

You're welcome, serge.

On second thought, might want to change the 15 to 30 in my formula, just in case you have long number strings:


Book1
ABCDEF
502 06 10 251234567890123 39261025123456789012339
Sheet170
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
B5=IFERROR(MID(SUBSTITUTE($A5," ",REPT(" ",30)),COLUMNS($B5:B5)*30-29,30)+0,"")

Here is another formula (placed in cell B5) that you can use...

=TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(" "&$A5," ",REPT(" ",99)),COLUMNS($B:B)*99,99))
