Yes we could indeed look for &quot;&nbsp;- &quot;&nbsp;there will not be a space at the start of the string. Could we do this in a formula so others could use it and simply copy it down the rows?

Hi guys, <br />
<br />
I have the below text in cell B2..<br />
<br />
- This is the first point - This is the second point - This is the third point<br />
<br />
Is there a formula I can use in cell A1 to insert text before the second and third dashes (not the first one). Basically i need to upload this csv to a website and cell B2 needs to read:<br />
<br />
- This is the first point &lt;/br&gt;- This is the second point &lt;/br&gt;- This is the third point. So as with the html tags it displays<br />
<br />
- This is the first point <br />
- This is the second point <br />
- This is the third point<br />
<br />
Many Thanks,<br />
Dean

Manipulating a string

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. Each cell of the array may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.

Spreadsheets

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
