HI all, I have a cell that has descriptions in it and item number the info looks like this:

7999 - 1/8" wrench with spool
88888 - thread for widgets

I would like to set up a column with just the item # and another with just the description that comes after the "-" so it would look like this

Column 1 Column 2
7999 1/8" wrench with spool
88888 thread for widgets

Is there a formula to accomplish this?

Thanks
