Default I need help with parsing cells ...

Data in one cell of a row may contain zero or more accounts names.

If the cell contains more than one account name, the names are sparated by a
comma

If there are more than one account names in the target cell of a row
I need to replicate that row n times where n is the number of account
names, and
place a copy of a unique account name in each row.

I need to figure out how I can:

Parse each target cell to determine how many account names I have

Copy and Insert additional rows such that there are n row where n is the
number of account names

Take the parsed string and put one account name per row in the target cell.

I think I can figure out how to insert the appropriate number of rows, but I
could use help on parsing the data in the cell in the first place.
