Subject:      Separating Two Words into Two Variables
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; DelSp="Yes"; format="flowed"

How do I create two variables from a variable that contains
observations with two words?
For example, if a=Apple District how would I create a1=Apple and a2=District?
or if a=Green Region how would I create a1=Green and a2=Region?
Thank you.
