Always handle date/time as Date, not text, not numbers, no exceptions. So:

Public Function ExtractDateTime(Value As Date) As Variant

    Dim d   As Date
    Dim t   As Date

    d = DateValue(Value)
    t = TimeValue(Value)

    ExtractDateTime = Array(d, t)

End Function

Parsing the Date for spaces is not a great way to go about it.

Instead, you can use Format to just get the pieces you want.

Function extractDateTime(dt As Date) As Variant
    Dim d As String, t As String
    d = Format(dt, "dd/mm/yyyy")
    t = Format(dt, "hh:mm:ss AMPM")
    extractDateTime = Array(d, t)
   
    Debug.Print d
    Debug.Print t

    Debug.Print Format(dt, "mmm dd, yyyy")
    Debug.Print Format(dt, "mmmm")

    Debug.Print WeekdayName(Weekday(dt))

End Function

Kinda seems like a waste of a function tho when you can just do this:

Result = Array(Format(dt, "dd/mm/yyyy"), Format(dt, "hh:mm:ss AMPM"))
