![]() I give my example : Column A : book titles Column B : authors ( a book may have 1 or more authors which are separated by a comma - like this : *John Doe , Michael Moore* Column C , D ,E etc ... information regarding the titles which makes no difference The macro should read every cell in B column . If no comma is found means it is only one author . Macro should copy the content from that cell ( B1 ... Bn) to H column ( H1 ... Hn ) If 1 comma or more are found , means there are more authors . 1 comma means there are 2 authors , 2 commas means there are 3 authors ... so on Say there are 2 commas . The Macro should create 2 rows after the row analysed with same content . More than that , should put in corresponding H column the authors one by one . Example A1: The fugitive B1 : John Doe , Michael Moore , Sasha Wild The macro should to this : A1: The fugitive B1 : John Doe , Michael Moore , Sasha Wild H1 : John Doe A2: The fugitive B2 : Jonh Doe , Michael Moore , Sasha Wild H2 : Michael Moore A3: The fugitive B3 : Jonh Doe , Michael Moore , Sasha Wild H3 : Sasha Wild The row number 2 ( A2 , B2 ... ) becomes row number 4 ( A4, B4 ...) after macro does his job . Of course , it is also analysed by macro and so on till macro find rows without text where it stops Can this be done ? -- andrei ------------------------------------------------------------------------ andrei's Profile: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/me...hp?userid=1056 View this thread: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/sh...d.php?t=147695 |
