I tried to figure this one out myself, but I was unsuccessful. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I have a large text field (A500) and I need to extract each word that begins with a hashtag '#' into a separate column within an Excel document.
Example data text: A boy name #Jack ran up the #hill to fetch a pail of #water on #11/14/2016.
From the example I am hoping to extract #Jack, #hill, #water, and #11/14/2016 and then place them into an output where each hashtag is a separate field. In the example there will be four columns, but the text field can be random. Could be zero hashtags or could be up to 10.This message has been edited. Last edited by: ChadSS,
