When to use text to column in excel | Excel Practice Case #15 إتعلم حيل إكسل مع دكسلو 🇹🇳
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

In this video we explore the use of the text to columns command in Excel to convert CSV values into columns.

When data is imported into Excel it can be in many formats depending on the source application that has provided it.

For example, it could contain names and addresses of customers or employees, but this all ends up as a continuous text string in one column of the worksheet, instead of being separated out into individual columns e.g. name, street, city.

You can split the data by using a common delimiter character. A delimiter character is usually a comma, tab, space, or semi-colon. This character separates each chunk of data within the text string.

A big advantage of using a delimiter character is that it does not rely on fixed widths within the text. The delimiter indicates exactly where to split the text.

You may need to split the data because you may want to sort the data using a certain part of the address or to be able to filter on a particular component. If the data is used in a pivot table, you may need to have the name and address as different fields within it.

This Excel functionality Text-to-columns can be used to split text in a cell into sections based on a delimiter character.
