    Find specific text within text and result dependent text in specified column

    Hi all,

    I am dealing with the following issue,

    I get data for email categorization in format like :

    'text1;text2;text3'
    (it is possible to have missing values within the text)

    I attach a sample in order to expain.

    The text in column A provides me the information regarding the sender of the email (Column FROM), the action (Column ACTION/INFO) and the subject (Column SUBJECT). So from the column A I want the text to split in the 3 columns B - C - D.

    The problem is that I cannot use text to columns since the texts within each cell are not always in the right order.

    So I made 3 tables (columns G:H, I:J & K:L) in order to show you the texts I may find within the text 'text1;text2;text3' of column A and the result I want in columns B - C - D.

    For example:

    If I have the following text in column A:

    AGREEMENTS; ACTION; DEALER

    then I want the result to be :

    in column B 'DEALER',
    in column C 'ACTION'
    in column D 'AGREEMENTS'


    Any help will be highly appreciated!
