expectations!!! Hey Roger, subtle comment, but I didn't miss that ... My congratulations to you too! Cheers P/s: Is there a reference namelist of the new kids on the MVP-Excel block available ? Or, could someone kindly take a moment to list these new kids? -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik ---

Thanks Max.
Dave has given the reason for the lack of a list. I have not got round to setting up a Profile on the website yet, neither would I imagine have many other of the "newbie's" . -- Regards Roger Govier "Max" wrote in message ...

Select your finished product, copy then click Edit/Paste Special/Values to
convert the formulae to constants. Then delete the other columns you don't need (verify the paste special works before deleting the source). I also wanted to jump in and congratulate Biff and Roger on reaching their goals - very well deserved recognition! "B.W." wrote: Thank-you, I have both parts together. I would like to delete the the columns in which they are separate, without affecting the finished product. Is this possible. BW "mfdou" wrote: I forgot to mention - you have to then copy the formula by clicking in the cell with the formula in it, then move the mouse over the lower right corner until the cursor turns into a solid black cross, then click and drag the formula all the way down to the bottom of your list. "mfdou" wrote: If using the hyphen as the deliminator separates the two parts of your phone numbers, you can put them back together fairly easily. make sure there is an empty column to the right of the two columns with the phone number and enter =(cell&”-“&cell) in the first cell of the empty column - for instance, =(A1&"-"&B1) This will give you back your phone numbers with the hyphen. "T. Valko" wrote: Ok, it might be that those spaces are not standard char 32 spaces. They might be char 160 non breaking spaces. In the EditReplace operation: Find what: hold down the ALT key and using the *numeric keypad* type 0160 let up on the ALT key then type the dash then hold down the ALT key and using the *numeric keypad* type 0160 Replace with: , (comma) Replace All Close Then do the text to columns Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "B.W." wrote in message ... I think I did everything you requested but i get a message " cannot find the data your searching for" "T. Valko" wrote: It looks like you have name space - space number. Try this: Select the range of cells in question Goto the menu EditReplace Find what: space-space That is, type in a space then the dash then another space Replace with: , (type in a comma) Replace All Close With those cells still selected Goto the menu DataText to Columns DelimitedNext CommaFinish Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "B.W." wrote in message ... I am trying to split 700 names with phone numbers. They are in column A. There are hyphens between the names and phone numbers. Do I have to replace it with a coma and if so can i do the first one and copy it to do the rest or do i have to do each one individually. I not really caught on to this posting yet, so please accept my thanks in advance. Any help is very much appreciated. ie John Doe - 250-555-5555

Dave, thanks for response/links
.. So I don't think you'll be seeing a list posted. No choice, resigned to this then. disappointed, though, that such occasions for us to rejoice/celebrate with new Excel MVPs should be stifled by privacy issues .. -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "Dave Peterson" wrote in message ...
