Hi guys,

I have a list of elements on my excel sheet.

The column that I need to do 'text to column' looks something like this

MDL1-Men's Wear
MODL1-Women's Wear
MODEL2-Fragrance
MODEL3-Maagzines
...

I just want to split the contenet before the hyphen and after that into two seperate columns?

Do anyone happen to know how to do that? :confused: :eek: :eek:
