    Copy part of a cell to another column cell

    Hi

    not sure how to explain this so heres an example

    I have a worksheet with 2000 rows.

    It has a colum named ChildsName and another named Notes this is for birth records so the system added *** where I typed Bast---- if you follow

    The originator has in some rows added a note in brackets

    ie John (*******)

    Mary (Illegitimate)

    I want to move the part in brackets to the number colum and delete the part in brackets

    ie
    ChildsName
    John (*******)

    to
    ChildsName Notes
    John *******

    Is this possible?

    thanks

    Ian
