I have data that has been entered by someone. The person has entered lots of
company's names in a single cell. I need to extract the individual companies
on to another cells!! What's the best thing of doing this?

Try 'Data'.....'text to columns'....'delimited'

you will then have to choose something to seperate them by, probably a space
or something like that.
