Hello I'd be happy to help with your issue. I'd solve this by making a vba macro to find pairs of speechmarks and then iterate over the whole string to find the subset of text that you need. Then I'll output this to their own column(s). I have over 10 years experience with excel & vba and I will be able to complete this task accurately and efficiently. Please let me know if you'd like me to pick this work up for you. Kind regards Steve

Hello, I am a professional and advanced excel user. In your case the searching parameter should be: Text starting from :" Text ending at "; Functions to be used: SEARCH LEN MID RIGHT LEFT or it can be done programmatically. What suits you? Text can easily be extracted. For each cell, different statements in different cells in the same row. It's just that simple. I can do it in minutes. If you are interested kindly drop me a message. Thanks Waqas
