TOCOL – Returns the array as one column. Using the WRAPROWS and WRAPCOLS functions, do the opposite: create a 2D array of a specified width or height by “wrapping” data to the next line (just like the text in this document) once your chosen width/height limit is reached. If you find yourself with a two-dimensional array that you would like to convert to a simple list, use TOROW and TOCOL to convert a 2D array into a single row or column of data. It has been challenging to change the “shape” of data in Excel, especially from arrays to lists and vice versa. With VSTACK and HSTACK, you can easily combine dynamic arrays, stacking your data vertically or horizontally. It can be challenging to combine data, especially when their sources are flexible in size. To make it easier to build compelling spreadsheets using dynamic arrays, we are releasing a collection of 11 new array manipulation functions. Since the release of dynamic arrays in 2019, we’ve seen a large increase in the usage of array formulas. TEXTSPLIT – Splits text into rows or columns using delimiters.TEXTAFTER – Returns text that’s after delimiting character.TEXTBEFORE – Returns text that’s before delimiting characters.Each text segment is then automatically spilled into its own cell through the magic of dynamic arrays. We’ve also made it easy to “split” text into multiple segments using TEXTSPLIT. To make it easier to extract the text from the start or end of a cell’s contents, we are releasing two functions that simply return everything before or after your selected delimiter. You can already do this with combinations of SEARCH, FIND, LEFT, RIGHT, MID, SUBSTITUTE, and SEQUENCE, but we’ve heard from many of you that these can be challenging to use. When working with text, a common task to complete is “break apart” text strings using a delimiter. I’m thrilled to share with you the availability of 14 new Excel functions designed to help you more easily manipulate text and arrays in your worksheets. Hey, Officer Insiders! My name is Joe McDaid, and I’m a Program Manager on the Excel team.
