Default undo concatenated cells

I have a list like this in column A:

cell A1. CHHKSHANAN000021,CHHKSHASAV001873,CHHKSHAOCF000026
cell A2. APLU020852965,APLU020852976,APLU020852966,APLU0208 52977


....but much longer. I want the data in separate cell (i.e., a1, a2, a3):

CHHKSHANAN000021
CHHKSHASAV001873
CHHKSHAOCF000026

I had tried the convert text to column wizard, however the data display only
horizontally. Is there a formula I can use to undo the Concatenated cells at
the same time insert the line to post each item?

Please help!

Default undo concatenated cells

It can be easily, done with VBA Macro - but if you prefer formulas then:
Assuming you have a string with 5 sections [as pictured]
1) The first {a2} and last [A6] formulas are different.
2) Formulas for Sections 2 till n-1 [2-4 in my example] are "identical.
*** The one in cell A3 should be and copied down till A5

Micky,

How would you do it with VBA Macro.

if each cell in cloumn B includes multiple number values, separated by comma
and I would like to create a new row for each unique number in column B such
that there remains only one unique value for every B cell.
