Default Splitting text strings along commas.

Dear all,
I need to split (along comma) a lot of text strings of different lenths into
pieces. Those short pieces of the text string shall then each be visible in
its own cell on another worksheet. One single string can contain up to 9
commas. For example:

The cell {'Worksheet1'!L3} contains the following text string:
Chair, Airplane, House, Net, Appel Tree, Bird, Desktop, Fly, Mouse.

Should be splitted and visible as followed:
{'Worksheet2'!A1} Chair
{'Worksheet2'!D8} Airplane
{'Worksheet2'!D9} House
{'Worksheet3'!B12} Net
{'Worksheet3'!A8} Apple Tree
{'Worksheet5'!Z80} Bird
etc.

Does anyone know a formula to achieve that?

Many thanks and best regards.
