I have one column that contains 1000 values. The problem is they do not
occupy one value per one cell with 1000 rows. Some rows/cells have 10 to 15 values, each separated by a semi colon. How can I sort or filter the entire column and separate each value into it's own unique cell in one column? |

I would suggest using <data<Text to columns <delimited with ;
after doing this I would use <edit<goto<special<last cell to identify the highest column with data. Sequencially Back to column B, I would sort these columns Cut and paste the results to the bottom of column A. "instauratio" wrote: I have one column that contains 1000 values.

Copy to Word. Convert Table to Text (separate text with paragraph marks). Use
Edit, Replace to replace semi-colons with paragraph marks and then double paragraph marks with single paragraph marks. Copy back to Excel.

This worked ok for me:
Option Explicit Sub testme() Dim curWks As Worksheet Dim newWks As Worksheet Dim destCell As Range Dim NumberOfRows As Long Dim myRng As Range Dim myCell As Range Dim mySplit As Variant Set curWks = Worksheets("sheet1") Set newWks = Worksheets.Add With curWks Set myRng = .Range("a1", .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp)) End With Set destCell = newWks.Range("a1") For Each myCell In myRng.Cells mySplit = Split97(myCell.Value, ";") 'or if xl2k and higher 'mySplit = Split(myCell.Value, ";") NumberOfRows = UBound(mySplit) - LBound(mySplit) + 1 destCell.Resize(NumberOfRows, 1).Value _ = Application.Transpose(mySplit) Set destCell = destCell.Offset(NumberOfRows, 0) Next myCell End Sub Function Split97(sStr As String, sdelim As String) As Variant 'from Tom Ogilvy Split97 = Evaluate("{""" & _ Application.Substitute(sStr, sdelim, """,""") & """}") End Function Split was added in xl2k. If you're using xl97, use Tom's split97. If you and your users are all at xl2k or higher, you can delete that function completely.
