Editing text before running text to columns
I have been given a mish-mash of data from a word doc that needs to be put into columns. See sample:
B, 01/20/15, 7:30am-10:30am, Conf Room ABC CH 02/06/15, 7:30am-10:30a, 40ppl Pinard Foyer B 02/18/15, 11:30am-2:30pm. 30ppl, Conf Room ABC CH 2/23/15, 7:30am-10:30am, 40ppl SECC D FH 3/07/15 7:30am-10:30am, 40ppl SECC B B, 3/31/15, 7:30am-10:30am, 30ppl, Knowledge Room Is there a way to edit/format this text without doing it line by line before running the Text to Columns? Thank so much, Maukford |

Editing text before running text to columns
Training Lady,
The text was emailed to me as a word doc and they would like it put in excel as columns. I have no problem copying it to excel and using the text to column function however, there is a lot of data that needs to have commas inserted, periods removed, dates standardized in order to sort them in excel. The sample I put in my original thread shows a few lines of the data that I received. Thank you! |
