    Separate text numbers and characters into coulmns

    I have the following type data given below and I need to separate each of the groups whether it be text, numeric or character into individual columns .

    The data is:
    ACC30X30X6
    30X30X6ACS
    ACS30X6
    BSC25*25*8
    25*40*8DDF

    and as an example I would like it to be: acc | 30 | x | 30 | x | 6

    Does anyone have an idea as to how this could be achieved whether by formula or coding?

    Thanks

    What about the other lines as some of them don't conform to the same format, e.g. line 3 ACS30X6, how should that be split?

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    Hi Tellm

    With the strings in A1, down, try:

    The code splits the text displayed in the cells and writes the result in the cells to the right.
