Hello everyone, this is tricky and im not sure if i have missed something or if this is even possible, if it is it would be a huge help. I am limited in my space to the right of the document so making a single cell with 4 or 5 values would be helpful. Is there a way i can call each of these values separately to run in my calculations? For example if the cell says "Water,horse,6,20" it will be able to know where each of those values go and calculate them? Thank you in advance.

Hi Whylucky,

Here are some suggestions:

1) Adding extra columns doesn't have to increase the size of your document.

2) You could extract values using the functions Left, Mid, Right.

3) Why don't you also place those values outside your document or even on a different sheet.

Best regards,
Trowa
