syazaaoa95 Hmm. Does your Excel have the TEXTSPLIT function? If so, you could use that to retrieve the first part of the strings like so:
=TEXTSPLIT(Table2[Data],{"IR","NP","GP"," L1"," CF"," DR"," C1"," CLC"})
You'll have to look at the results to see if any remain "unsplit" and find out which characters you can add to split that one as well. Watch out though, adding texts to the strings within the curly braces may affect ones that have currently been correctly split into ones that are now split the wrong way!
See attached.
What if I don't have TEXTSPLIT function? can I use this in google spreadsheet too?
I don't know, I don't use google sheets
