Default Break cell text up into diff cells

Is there a way to find ((BREAK)) and put 888 in the cell below?

Venturing a thought ...
Assume data in A1 down
In B1: =IF(A1="","",A1)
In B2: =IF(A1="","",IF(A1="((BREAK))",888,A2))
Copy down as far as required. Check that col B reflects what you want. Then
copy col B and overwrite col A with a paste special as values. Clear col B.
