How to Parse Structured Data into Multiple Columns in Excel

·
·

I'm trying to take structured data from one column and parse it into 6 new columns - basically people and titles, and move those to Person 1 Name, Person 1 Title, etc. I'm using a new column with a formula to try to make that happen but I cant seem to generate a prompt it can understand. Any better way to approach this?

    To parse structured data from one column into multiple new columns, you have a couple of options: 1. Using AI formulas: • Add a new column • Choose "Ask question about items with AI" from column options • Use the formula option to specify the data you want to extract for each new column (e.g., Person 1 Name, Person 1 Title) 2. Merge columns: • Click "Add column" > "Merge columns" • Select the appropriate data type • Write a formula to extract the specific information you need For complex parsing, you might need to create multiple columns and use separate formulas for each.
