Excel - Extract Test Between Semi-Colon -
i have list of data in column different lengths in following format:
abc radiologist 100; abc nurse 200; abc technologist 300; abc biller 400; abc coder 500
i trying extract each line of data separate column show such:
course 1 course 2 etc abc radiologist 100 abc nurse 200
i need each course name in separate column.
i used formula in column b:
=mid(a1,1,search(";",a1)-1)
and formula in column c:
=trim(mid($a$1,len(b1)+2,find(";",$a$1,len(b1))))
this formula returns values, because of varying lengths of data, in column c, cuts data off or adds data after third ;
any suggestions?
i need repeat formula 9 times
with data in a1, enter in b1:
=trim(mid(substitute($a1,";",rept(" ",999)),columns($a:a)*999-998,999))
and copy across.
edit#1:
we copying b1 across. c1 contain:
=trim(mid(substitute($a1,";",rept(" ",999)),columns($a:b)*999-998,999))
and d1 contain:
=trim(mid(substitute($a1,";",rept(" ",999)),columns($a:c)*999-998,999))
etc.
