I have a column with six numbers. I made them to be text.
Now I want to separate the whole column into 2 columns one
with the first three numbers & one with the second three
numbers. (Eventually I want to sort the whole file by the
second set of three numbers)
Is there a way to do it?

Hi
one way: use the two formulas
=LEFT(A1,3)
and
=RIGHT(A1,3)
and copy both formulas down

You may also take a look at 'data - Text to columns' and choose a fixed
length
