Anybody here to help ? :(
 
Open notepad ++

Paste your data in it.

Find & Replace the separator that bothers you, to your Excel CSV separator, (generally , or ;)

Replace all

Save in CSV open in Excel

Enjoy ;)
 
1. Put the text to column A
2. Put formula =FIND("|";A1) in column B
3. Put formula =LEFT(A1;B1-1) in column C
4. Put formula =MID(A1;B1+1;50) in column D

The number will be in column C, and the name in column D

Use * after you want to replace, for example if you replace the 10094/name replace /* you get only the number. or use
=LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1)-1)

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(",",A1))
 
No formulas required, use Excel's text to columns where you can pick the delimiter you want and Excel will break the text into columns.
