How do I split this into 3 separate cells?

Wednesday, June 01, 2011


Thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Depends if the cell is an Excel Date, or just a text string.

What does this return?
=ISNUMBER(A1)

If it's Text you can use combinations of LEFT MID and RIGHT functions.

If it's a serial date, you can use MONTH DAY YEAR etc.

Provide how you'd like it split and you can get a more specific answer.

If that returns TRUE, then try

=TEXT(A1,"dddd") = "Wednesday"
=TEXT(A1,"mmmm dd") ="June 01"
=YEAR(A1) = 2011

If the Isnumber returns FALSE, try Data - Text to columns - Deliminated - Comma



Hope that helps.
