Combining multiple columns (Post Reg-EX) into respective columns?

Hello,

 

In my first column, I have varied ways of how an "ID" was entered (with spaces, without space, etc.). I used a RegEX to parse it out but it came out to be 4 different columns. I would like to merge The RegEXOut3 and RegEXOut4  into RegEXOut1 and RegEXOut2, respectively.

 

I tried using the transpose tool, but it was not returning the intended results.

 

Thanks for any insights!

Try:
(\w\w\)s*-\s*(\d+)

Use it in a regex tool to parse your input.

Thanks Mark!

 

I slightly modified the formula you provided: (\w\w)*\s*-*\s*(\d+) and it worked!
