If the data is perfect
# to get the first string ( 25.040215 ): B1 = {{code | code=<span style="background-color: #F6CEF5">MID( A1, 1, FIND("-", A1)-1)</span> }}
# to get the second string ( 121.512532 ): C1 = {{code | code=<span style="background-color: #ccc">MID( A1, FIND(",", A1)+1, LEN(A1))</span> }}
 
if the data was mixed with empty values.  Return empty if the value is empty.
# to get the first string ( 25.040215 ): B1 = {{code | code=IF(ISERROR(<span style="background-color: #F6CEF5">MID(A1, 1, FIND(",", A1)-1)</span>), "", <span style="background-color: #F6CEF5">MID(A1, 1, FIND(",", A1)-1)</span>) }}
# to get the second string ( 121.512532 ): C1 = {{code | code=IF(ISERROR(TRIM(<span style="background-color: #ccc">MID(A1, FIND(",", A1)+1, LEN(A1))</span>)), "", TRIM(MID(<span style="background-color: #ccc">A1, FIND(",", A1)+1, LEN(A1))</span>) }}
