Default Unconcatenate and Replace Text


Hi all and thanks in advance.

I have two files. File1 has codes and full text in two columns.
Example:
1st column 2nd column
app Application Server
edb1c Data Base Server 1

File2 has a column called "Platforms". (It is the fourth column in the
5-column sheet.) In that column, the data is grouped and separated by
semi-colons.
Example:
Platforms
app;edb1c;edb2c;nbu01;nr1tms1

I need to write a macro to use on File2 that will replace all instances
of the codes with the full text that the code stands for - by reading
the other sheet or not. (I'm not sure if this replace list can be
loaded in a macro.) I also need to create a separate line for each of
the decoded platforms. (Not all 5 columns have to be repeated, but
that's OK too.) The unconcatenate and the replace can be done in either
order or in separate macros.

Any assistance you can give me on this will be greatly appreciated.

Crystal
