Hi,

I have two columns with 9 or more single digits numbers that are text. The issue with simple text to columns is that if any of the 9 numbers is a double digit number it looks like this in the cell...

Q​
R​
0001010(11)0400100000
0000001000000000200
101010100000000(10)000


I want to extract each individual number in column Q to separate columns; same with column R. to a separate column to study the totals, but have an issue every time it runs into the odd ball double digit number which is always like this (10)

If it helps, these are line scores from baseball games, but have a number of them with double digit scoring in a single inning.
any ideas on how to extract each number including the double digit numbers?

Thanks, Mike in Cali...
 
I have utilized the formulas and built the dynamic arrays. Now, I come to find I cannot utilize the spilled results in summing columns (innings). Is there a work around?

Excel Facts

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
"I have utilized the formulas and built the dynamic arrays. Now, I come to find I cannot utilize the spilled results in summing columns (innings). Is there a work around?"

Which formula are you using?

Try coercing the text to a value; you may be able to just add double negatives to the front of the formula =--formula.

As @Dave Patton has indicated, you can coerce the text values to numbers, but you also have to allow for the "x" values. So, using my formulas, you can leave the 'score' formulas as they were as I have for the left section and do the coercion in the sum formula or you could do the coercion in the 'score' formula as I have done on the right and then just use SUM as normal.
