    Extracting text and numbers

    Hi,

    I have a cell from a database which doesn’t split out the text and numbers into separate columns so I would like to do this manually.

    I have the following codes to split certain elements out:

    Text
    =LEFT(B15,MIN(FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},B15&"0123456789"))-1)
    Number
    =LOOKUP(10^99,--MID(B15,MIN(IF((--ISNUMBER(--MID(B15,ROW($1:$25),1))=0)*ISNUMBER(--MID(B15,ROW($2:$26),1)),ROW($2:$26))),ROW($1:$25)))
    (CSE Formula)

    The Problem I have is that it doesn’t deal with the fact it’s a negative number, is there a workaround?
