traceroute format

[danicam]

Hi guys.

Kindly I would like to ask you help to follow issue.
I have a command output as listed below:


ROUTER#traceroute 10.42.0.10


Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 10.42.0.11


1 10.1.19.18 0 msec 0 msec 8 msec
2 10.1.18.18 0 msec 9 msec 0 msec
3 10.1.18.17 8 msec 9 msec 0 msec
4 10.13.169.143 0 msec 0 msec 8 msec
5 200.159.29.229 9 msec 0 msec 8 msec
6 187.93.165.109 59 msec 59 msec 59 msec
7 187.93.144.110 58 msec 58 msec 59 msec
8 1.1.1.1 58 msec 58 msec 59 msec
9 * * *
ROUTER#


My ideia is paste this code in the first columm and extract the IP address information to second colummn
Like this:

1st columm 2nd colum
1 10.1.19.18 0 msec 0 msec 8 msec 10.1.19.18
2 10.1.18.18 0 msec 9 msec 0 msec 10.1.18.18
3 10.1.18.17 8 msec 9 msec 0 msec 10.1.18.17 8
4 10.13.169.143 0 msec 0 msec 8 msec 10.13.169.143
5 200.159.29.229 9 msec 0 msec 8 msec 200.159.29.229
6 187.93.165.109 59 msec 59 msec 59 msec 187.93.165.109
7 187.93.144.110 58 msec 58 msec 59 msec 187.93.144.110
8 1.1.1.1 58 msec 58 msec 59 msec 1.1.1.1

Does anyone have any idea how to achieve it?

Thanks. Daniel

I think shg meant to tell you to use Text To Columns (Data tab, Data Tools panel on the Ribbon) using Space as the delimiter. However, for what you actually asked for, put this formula in cell B1 (assuming your first data item is in cell A1) and copy down...

=LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)-1)

Hey there,

Thanks for prompt reply. Unfortunately I can use the approach text to columns.
Also I've tested the the formula but didnt work. My cell still in blank.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Daniel

Maybe your spaces are not true space, but rather non-breaking spaces (ASCII 160)? This could happen if you copy/paste values from the web. To test this idea, try using this formula instead...

=LEFT(A1,FIND(CHAR(160),A1)-1)

I did. I thought I had ...
