    A very weak way to do this would be something like:
    Code:
    SELECT
    SUBSTRING(column, 0, CHARINDEX(' ', column, 1)),
    SUBSTRING(column, CHARINDEX(' ', column, 1), 8000)
FROM
    Table;
    However, I suspect that you will run into all sorts of issues with your real data. Might be worth thinking about a data scrubbing task that brings the data into a "better" normalised form.

    Also is the format same for all set of data or different?
