While watching a tutorial about Power Query, I saw that the software allows for splitting columns by digit to non-digit. When I opened up my Excel/PQ to practice doing so, I noticed that I only have two split column options (by delimiter; by number of characters). I have the 2019 Microsoft Office version of Excel. Can anyone tell me why I do not have the other split by options (e.g. by digit to non-digit)?

Just tested that in Microsoft 365 where the option you want’s available.
I can only assume that the other 5 options weren’t made available / weren’t yet available in the 2019 version.
