Default Divide Cell Across Rows

Hello,

For example, I have 3 cells across by one row down and the first two contain
data that is separated by Ctrl + Enter:

Column: A B D

Row:
1 Dog X 100
1 Cat Y
1 Mouse Z

I am trying to fnd a way to split the data across 3 separate rows, in this
example, as such:

Column: A B C
Row:

1 Dog X 100
2 Cat Y 100
3 Mouse Z 100

The data may sometimes be separated by another character, such as ; or ,

In an ideal world, I would love for the user to input which character or
characters are the dividing character, but if this is too difficult, then I
could simply provide different macros for different characters.

Also, I don't want specific columns to be referred to, as the layout and
column position of these items may change from file to file. Basically, for
them to select the column(s) they wish to divide.

Any help at all in this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Thanks!

Dee
