?? Flash Fill Magic in Action: An Example! ???

Imagine you have a list of first and last names combined in one column:

JohnDoe

JaneSmith

SamBrown

You want to split the names into separate first and last name columns. Here's where the magic begins:

  1. In the next column, type "John" (to denote the first name) and then "Doe" in the next column.
  2. Select both cells.
  3. Start typing "Jane" in the second row of the first name column.

As soon as you start typing, Excel's Flash Fill recognizes the pattern and will suggest:

Jane Sam

Likewise, in the Last Name column:

Smith Brown

All with just a hint of what you want! ??♂? Just hit Enter to accept Excel's suggestion and witness the auto-fill magic. Don't forget Ctrl + E can also kickstart this process!

Try it and let Excel simplify your data tasks! ???? #ExcelFlashFill #MagicWithData
