Yes, the numeric part is always at the end of the text.
Yes, the numeric part never has any spaces in it
I would like the numeric part separated as a number, not text.

Please confirm:
1) The numeric part is always at the end of the text
2) The numeric part never has any spaces in it.
Also, do you want the numeric part separated as a number or as a string
value?
Regards, Dave S

Subject: [ExcelVBA] Text to columns, alpha characters first then numeric
Howdy all,
I have example data below,
DIFF WKND PCT A 1090.52
REG 13621.58
I want the above data split into 2 columns and only ever two columns.
1. All the text or alpha characters in one column
2. All the numeric characters in another column
The result should be below:
DIFF WKND PCT A 1090.52
REG 13621.58
How do I do this? Text to columns by the "delimited space" method winds up
that the first row contains 5 columns and the second row contains two, and
the numeric portion is slotted in different columns because of it.
