My column A contains data like this:
Sent: Saturday, March 24, 2001 12:39 PM

I would like column B to show the date in mm/dd/yy format, and column C to show the time in HH:MM AM/PM format. Could someone please show me how?

assuming data in cell A4
to extract the date:

=DATEVALUE(RIGHT(A4,LEN(A4)-FIND("day, ",A4)-4))

to extract the time:

=TIMEVALUE(RIGHT(A4,LEN(A4)-FIND("day, ",A4)-4))

the use Format>Cells>Number>Date or Custom to formt to your liking
