Hi,

I have some data in a Cell A1 which is ultimately an email signature. It reads something like.

Company:AN Company
Contact: email@email.com
Telephone: 0123456789
Website: www.website.com

This continues down the sheet for 150 lines with each line being a new contact.

I need to break each type ( company, contact etc ) down into separate cells so can then use it to import into a CRM system

I have a formula in cell B1 as =TextAfter(A1,"Company: ")
The return i get is AN CompanyContact:email@email.comTelephone and so on...

I cant seem to get it to stop at the word contact and only return the company name. Any help woudl be appreciated. Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Copy PDF to Excel
Select data in PDF. Paste to Microsoft Word. Copy from Word and paste to Excel.
I am guessing that you have soft carriage returns in that cell.
Try this:
Excel Formula:
=TEXTBEFORE(TEXTAFTER(A1,"Company:"),CHAR(10))

Perhaps to get all the values
=TOROW(DROP(TEXTSPLIT(A1,":",CHAR(10)),,1),1)

One more option:

Fantastic, Saved me a huge job. I had already started using @Joe4 formula before i saw the rest so i'm all done. Many Thanks all, Plus 1 for the community

You are welcome.
Glad we could help!

Note, if you do need to extract all 4 items from each cell, my solution requires you to create 4 formulas, while some of the other ones only require one formula that "spills" into the other cells with the other values.
