Hi there,

I'm trying to split a list of alpha numeric location references as shown in cell A1 into two distinct references that I require, as shown in cells B1 & C1.

Can anyone assist?

Any help would be grateful and I can tell my team off for not collecting the data properly in the first place!

Regards

Ben

Hi, shouldn't the C1 result be "L7"?

If so, one option might be..
