    Thats awesome thanks guys! One more formula needed, how would I add a comma every 50 characters but not in the middle of a text string with a maximum of 5 commas?

    This will mess up character count.

    It's a new formula, separate from the first one. Doesn't have to divide string into separate cells, just add the commas.
